Cruden Homes has submitted plans to build 52 new affordable flats in Livingston on the site of the former St Columba’s Church in Craigshill.If permission is granted, once completed, the one and two-bedroom homes will be given to a housing association.Cruden had launched a public consultation in January this year to assess public opinion on the proposals.However, one local has expressed concern about the loss of “green area for dogs or children to play”.A consultation with Edinburgh Airport has also highlighted concerns that birds roosting on the buildings could “endanger the safe movement of aircraft and the operation of Edinburgh Airport”.A Bird Hazard Management Plan has been requested by the airport before any permission is granted, The West Lothian Courier reports.
