Addendum to South Lanarkshire Local Plan 2
Law Place East Kilbride
In response to a legal challenge that was submitted in relation to the designation of this site as a Core Industrial and Business Area in the adopted South Lanarkshire Local Development Plan 2, the council removed the designation in the adopted plan and has prepared Supporting Planning Guidance and a development brief for the site Law Place, East Kilbride - SPG and development brief. This was approved by the council on 29 March 2022. It sets out our position in terms of the uses that would be appropriate on the site and provides detailed guidance on various planning considerations. The Settlement Plan for East Kilbride has been amended accordingly. No other part of the plan was affected by this change.
