Recently there has been two planning applications lodged with Aberdeenshire Council for two cafes with drive-thru facilities  at the Kingshill Commercial Park off the A944, near the Tesco roundabout.  The applications are for a Mcdonalds and a Starbucks.

Public comments on the planning website are now closed but WECC have got an extension to 13th January to put in our comments.  We will be discussing it at our meeting on Thursday 10th January, starting 7pm at the Holiday Inn, so anyone is welcome to come to that to tell us their views or you can contact the WECC secretary at weccsecretx@gmail.com
