MONIFIETH1. Monifieth is situated east of Dundee on the northern shore of theTay Estuary. Originally a small fishing village, Monifieth has grownsubstantially as a residential centre mainly catering for the needs ofthe wider Housing Market Area. There is a range of local retail,commercial and community facilities available and the town has easyaccess to recent commercial and recreational facilities on the A92 tothe north.2. The coastal setting provides Monifieth with much of its character.The important beachfront area has recently been the subject of amajor environmental improvement scheme to provide upgraded playfacilities, parking and sports pitches which along with its renown forlinks golf has added to the town’s attractions for residents and visitors.3. The Dundee and Angus Structure Plan specifies that Monifiethshould contribute to meeting the housing allowances for the widerHousing Market Area. As the town has had a substantial amount ofnew housing development in recent years, the strategy for Monifieth isto retain those sites promoted in the first Angus Local Plan but yetcome forward and not to allocate further new greenfield sites at thisstage.KEY ISSUESPROFILERole:Residential centre providingservices and facilities for thetown and wider catchment area.Population:Census 2001 - 8164;1991 - 7871;% change 91/01: +3.72Housing Land Supply June2004:existing – 29allocated first ALP- 25Drainage:Although connected to HattonWWTP the town drainagenetwork is at capacity.
