CAOL Community Council received an update on the proposed flood prevention scheme last week. Since the last public consultation in 2016, when objections to the standard of protection and height of the flood defence was raised by residents, the council’s consultant has re-designed the scheme. The defence will meet the government’s standards of protection for a one in 200-year event, while removing the wave wall which accommodated potential sea level rise caused by global warming.
The scheme drawings and documents have been completed and are undergoing a review by the council’s legal department. Following that review, the scheme will be published for 28 days, during which details of the scheme will be made public to allow for formal comments or objections.
Notices will be placed in the local press and around the seafront at Caol when the details are made public. There will be a public exhibition in Caol and a notice about the exhibition will be delivered through doors. If permission is granted to build the scheme, construction is expected to start in 2019/20.
