Robertson Partnership Homes, Redco Slackbuie Ltd and Caledonia Housing Association are planning to build 67 new houses in a field by Slackbuie Farm Road.
As well as five business/retail units, a pedestrianised public square is envisioned as part of the plans and housing will branch off either side of a "spine street". In addition, 18 of the homes have been classed as 'affordable'.

The development would also reside next to a proposed 82-house development from Barratt North Scotland and a site where 60 homes and a restaurant are being built by Kirkwood Homes.
The developers' planning statement reads: "The proposal is not simply a housing development, but also proposes a neighbourhood square that will provide the opportunity for local businesses, charities and community uses to open office space, or small-scale retail uses.
"The space within the square also provides a high-quality space for events, or gatherings.
"Business uses are well catered for in this area with Fairways Business Park to the east of the site. There is no demand for additional business use in this location. However, the commercial units would be available as offices, and would suit business start-ups or community uses."
