'Care homes are one of the things we are going to struggle with in the not too distant future.”
A care home company’s bid to build on a bowling and tennis club site in Glasgow’s West End has been rejected again.
Northcare claimed the home, at Anniesland Tennis and Bowling Club, would have provided “much needed accommodation for the ever increasing elderly population, allowing them to live their lives with dignity and independence with specialist assistance at hand”. Cllr Eva Bolander, SNP, said the proposal was “a bit shoehorned into an area that so clearly has been initially designated as use for the community”.
Cllr Ken Andrew, SNP, the planning committee chairman, suggested the application was turned down, with his amendment passing by seven votes to three.
