THE Scottish government must pull the plug on Flamingo Land’s exclusive rights to build on the banks of Loch Lomond, the Scottish Greens insisted today.
The demand came after the company’s attempt to build a £40 million holiday resort, comprising two hotels, 100 holiday cottages, a waterpark and a monorail, was unanimously rejected for a second time by the board of the Loch Lomond and Trossachs National Park Authority on Monday.
Objections were received from almost 150,000 people, organisations such as the National Trust for Scotland and the Scottish Environment Protection Agency.
