A public exhibition is to be held later this month on major development proposals for an area on the northern edge of Elgin.

A masterplan for the 112 hectare Findrassie site has been approved by Moray councillors.

The development proposals will now go on display at Moray College’s Alexander Graham Bell Centre in Elgin on Monday, September 14 from 3pm to 8pm as part of a public consultation.

Staff from Moray Council’s planning and development section will be on hand, as will representatives of the landowners, Pitgaveny.

Findrassie will be developed over the next 20 to 30 years and the masterplan includes provision for around 1500 new homes, a school, a range of community facilities and open spaces as well as land which will be developed for business.

It will represent a major northward expansion of the Elgin settlement boundary and will stretch from Duffus Road in the west to the A941 Elgin-Lossiemouth road in the east.
