I USE OF PARKS AND OPEN SPACES AS CIVIL MARRIAGE VENUES
There was submitted Agenda Note AN160-2005 informing the Committee that under the Marriage
(Approval of Places) (Scotland) Regulations 2002, local authorities could register a wide range of
venues as Civil Marriage venues. Dundee had 18 such officially licensed/designated venues. The
object of the legislation was to increase the choice of venues available to couples planning a Civil
Marriage and statistics showed that there had been an increase in the numbers of Civil Marriages held
in Dundee since the 2002 Act.
A request had been received for permission for a marriage ceremony to be held on Dundee Law and it
was proposed that the Law and other park/open space venues be designated as Civil Marriage
venues. Locations in Council ownership could be so designated simply by notifying the Registrar
General for Scotland. It would still be necessary for couples to obtain the permission of the Dundee
Contract Services Committee, so that, for example, account could be taken of other events on the
same dates etc. Venues which would prove attractive for this purpose included Dundee Law,
Camperdown Park, Templeton Woods etc and it was recommended that authority be granted for the
Director to decide on any other locations to be so designated in liaison with the Depute Chief
Executive (Support Services).
The Committee approved the above and agreed that the granting/refusing of future requests for use of
these locations be delegated to the Director or nominee and that the Scheme of Delegated Powers be
amended accordingly.

I HMIe INSPECTION OF KIRKTON AND DUNDEE CENTRAL
32
There was submitted Report No 215-2005 by the Head of Communities providing a summary of the
findings of Her Majesty's Inspectorate of Education who had inspected Communities Department
management systems and delivery of community learning and development (CLD) in Dundee Central
and Kirkton areas over the first two weeks in December 2004.
Community learning and development was targeted at those individuals and groups in society who
were more likely to experience disadvantage. As part of the inspection, HMIe looked specifically at
the Department's delivery in respect of equality and diversity and had made favourable comment on
this.
The Committee approved the following recommendations:-
(a) to note the positive feedback from HMIe on the delivery of community learning and
development by the City Council's Communities Department. Since the introduction of
the current inspection framework for community learning and development work in
Scotland, no other authority had had a report with all indicators scoring either good or
very good (see Appendix 1 of the Report);
(b) to note that HMIe had identified a number of areas for continuous improvement - the
most significant relating to community provision in the Hilltown; and
(c) to note that there were no formal requirements which would be the subject of a follow
up inspection.

XII USE OF PARKS AND OPEN SPACES - CIVIL MARRIAGE VENUES
There was submitted Agenda Note AN160-2005 informing the Committee that under the Marriage
(Approval of Places) (Scotland) Regulations 2002, local authorities could register a wide range of
venues as Civil Marriage venues. Dundee had 18 such officially licensed/designated venues. The
object of the legislation was to increase the choice of venues available to couples planning a Civil
Marriage and statistics showed that there had been an increase in the numbers of Civil Marriages held
in Dundee since the 2002 Act.
A request had been received for permission for a marriage ceremony to be held on Dundee Law and it
was proposed that the Law and other park/open space venues be designated as Civil Marriage
venues. Locations in Council ownership could be so designated simply by notifying the Registrar
General for Scotland. It would still be necessary for couples to obtain the permission of the Dundee
Contract Services Committee, so that, for example, account could be taken of other events on the
same dates etc. Venues which would prove attractive for this purpose included Dundee Law,
Camperdown Park, Templeton Woods etc and it was recommended that authority be granted for the
Director to decide on any other locations to be so designated in liaison with the Depute Chief
Executive (Support Services).
The Committee approved the above and agreed that the granting/refusing of future requests for use of
these locations be delegated to the Director or nominee and that the Scheme of Delegated Powers be
amended accordingly.

meeting of the Planning and Transportation Committee of 2nd December 2002 wherein the Committee
approved a report regarding the potential for the Decriminalisation of Parking Enforcement (DPE) in
Dundee. Further reference was made to Article II of this Committee of 6th March 2004 which
established the initial staffing structure for the Car Park operations in order to implement and operate
the DPE arrangements with effect from 1st April 2004.
It was reported that DPE had been in operation for one year and, following a review of the required
level of enforcement within the City, the Committee agreed to approve the establishment of six
additional posts of Parking Attendant, graded GS3, £14,468 - £15,062, to meet the increased demand
having noted that the financial implications of implementing this proposal would be £106,428 in a full
financial year and would be met from the additional income associated with DPE.
VIII HOUSING DEPARTMENT - REDESIGNATION AND REGRADING OF POST
There was submitted Agenda Note AN174-2005 making reference to Article IV of the minute of
meeting of this Committee of 17th January 2005 wherein the Committee approved a report on the
Review of Housing Department Management Structure which, among many other issues, had led to a
redefinition of the duties of the post of Team Leader, Anti-Social Behaviour Team, currently graded
PO1-4, £26,379 - £28,632.
The Director of Housing had decided that in addition to the current responsibility for anti-social
behaviour service delivery and policy development, the postholder would assume immediate
responsibility for managing the Housing Support Team, Special Needs Unit and Applications Section
and as a consequence of these additional higher level duties, it was recommended that the post be
redesignated to Principal Officer (Services) and be regraded to PO5-8, £29,541 - £31,860.
The Committee approved this redesignation, having noted that the cost would be £1,130 in the
2005/06 financial year rising eventually to £4,030 in a full financial year, both figures being inclusive of
employer's costs and these additional costs would be met from the Housing Revenue Account.
It was reported that the Convener had agreed that the undernoted item be considered as a
matter of urgency in terms of Standing Order 17(b) in view of the timescales involved.
IX SUPPORT SERVICES DEPARTMENT - ARCHITECTURAL SERVICES DIVISION -
REDESIGNATION AND REGRADING OF POSTS
There was submitted an Agenda Note AN179-2005 making reference to Article II of the minute of
meeting of this Committee of 17th January, 2005, wherein the Committee approved a report reviewing
the staffing structure of the Architectural Services Division.
One of the recommendations approved by Committee had been the establishment of four temporary
posts of Project Manager for a period of three years at a grade of PO7-10, currently £31,068 -
£33,423.

63
It was reported that having regard to the major capital projects about to be commenced (ie Gardynes
Lane, St John's High School, McManus Galleries) and other possible future major projects, the City
Architectural Services Officer and the Assistant Chief Executive (Management) had reconsidered the
situation and had concluded that two of the four Project Manager posts referred to above should be
redesignated and regraded to reflect the higher level responsibilities arising from these major projects.
Accordingly, the Committee agreed that two temporary posts of Project Manager be redesignated to
Senior Project Manager and be regraded to PO11-14, £34,173 - £36,624 and further agreed that the
City Architectural Services Officer reserved the right to make appointments to these posts according to
the schedule for each project. It was also noted that given the wide variety and number of projects to
be undertaken, it was possible that the Committee may be asked, in due course, to approve
extensions to these posts.

The Committee acceded to requests which had been received for deputations to address the
Committee both in support of and relative to objections to the aforementioned application. After

the aforementioned application. After the deputation had stated its case and answered questions from
embers it was thanked for its attendance and withdrew.

68
Thereafter, having considered objections received, the Committee refused the application on the
grounds that:-
(i) the proposed development contravened Police BE4(B) and BE4(I) of the adopted
Local Plan by reason of over-development of the original garden ground of
"Taymount" and the adverse impact on trees and ENV12 of the adopted Local Plan by
reason of the loss of trees which were protected by a Tree Preservation Order; it was
considered that there were no material considerations which would justify the approval
of the proposed development contrary to the provisions of the adopted Local Plan;
(ii) the proposed development would have an adverse impact on the setting of
"Taymount" (a category B listed building) contrary to Section 59 of the Planning
(Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) (Scotland) Act 1997 by reason of the siting
of the proposed new house and the garage for the existing house and the loss of trees
within the former garden of the listed building; and
(iii) the proposed development contravened Policy 4 of the Finalised Local Plan Review
because it would depart from the prevailing low density of development in the area,
Policy 15(b), (d) and (h) of the Finalised Local Plan Review by reason of overdevelopment
of the original garden ground of "Taymount", increasing the prevailing
density in the area and the adverse impact on trees and Policy 72 of the Finalised
Local Plan Review by reason of the loss of trees which were protected by a Tree
Preservation Order.

the letter from George McGilvray dated 11th April 2005, in accordance with the
request of the applicant and to address potential overlooking concerns of the property
immediately to the north; and
(ii) notwithstanding the provisions of the Town and County Planning (General Permitted
Development) (Scotland) Order 1992, as amended, no window or other opening shall
be formed in the first floor of the northern gable of the property subject to this

VII SCHEME OF DELEGATION: AUTHORISATION FOR ENTRY ON LAND
70
There was submitted Agenda Note AN176-2005 advising that, whilst the current Scheme of

of Planning and Transportation to authorise members of his staff to enter upon any land at any
reasonable time for purposes mentioned in Section 269 and 270 of the Town and Country Planning
(Scotland) Act 1997. this delegated power did not extend to rights of entry for enforcement purposes
as provided for in Section 156 to 158 of the 1997 Act.
It was therefore agreed that the Scheme of Delegation for the Planning and Transportation
Department be amended as follows:-
Delete: The authority to authorise a person to enter upon any land at any reasonable time for
the purposes mentioned in Sections 269 and 270 of the 1997 Act.
