Support to retain Bellahouston Park's Plant Nursery

This week, I visited the council's plant nursery within Bellahouston Park.This provided an opportunity to view the site and receive further information on the impact a proposed hospice would have.
Polytunnels which would have to make way for the new hospice.

The current proposal for the hospice would build on the nursery site which is designated greenspace and therefore, in principle, I have been unable to support this new build project.

I think the plant nursery requires to be preserved and additional growing spaces for the wider community to meet demand from residents should be the priority for the site.

I believe there are brownfield locations on the southside which could be regenerated as part of the hospice development.
