On 25 June 2008 Aberdeen City Council by resolution adopted the above named local plan, as modified by the Council.

Certified copies of the plan and of the resolution together with certified copies of the reports of all local inquiries held and of the council’s statements prepared following the consideration of such reports have been deposited at Planning and Infrastructure Reception, 8th Floor, St. Nicholas House, Broad Street, Aberdeen, AB10 1BW; at all the City’s public libraries; and at The Point, next to the main entrance of St. Nicholas House in Broad Street.

The plan became operative on 25 June 2008, but if any person aggrieved by the plan desires to question its validity on the grounds that it is not within the powers conferred by Part II of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997, or that any requirement of the said Part II or of any regulation made thereunder has not been complied with in relation to the adoption of the plan, he may, within six weeks from 4 July 2008, make an application to the Court of Session under section 238 of the Town and Country Planning (Scotland) Act 1997.
