Any parties seeking to redevelop the site will need to carry out their own investigations to satisfy themselves on environmental aspects.
Planning:
The land at Kelvinbank Resource Centre is allocated as a business and employment site in the adopted Local Development Plan as part of site 13.18 Broomhill. Policy 13 - Creating a Supportive Business and Employment Environment supports proposals for Class 4, 5 and 6 uses on existing business and industrial sites, whether presently developed or available for development. The Proposed Local Development Plan 2 was approved for consultation on 20 August 2020 and so its current status is such that it has limited weight in the determination of planning applications. Policy 15 Business and Employment makes no change in the designation of the site and similarly states the Council, as Planning Authority, will support proposals for Class 4, 5 and 6 uses on existing business and industrial sites, whether presently developed or available for development.
The Planning Service has advised that a planning application for Housing would not comply with the LDP or Proposed LDP2.
Any parties whom would seek to redevelop the site for alternative uses are advised to engage with East Dunbartonshire Council Planning Department on 0300 123 4510 or planning@eastdunbarton.gov.uk.

The premises are currently entered in the 2017 Valuation Roll as "Training Centre" with a rateable value of £77,000.
