Councillor Kenny McLean, Convener for Housing, Development, Built Heritage and Land Use at Glasgow City Council, said: "The North Glasgow Strategic Development is a long-term plan which will guide the future development of this area of the city, building on the substantial work currently being carried out at a number of different sites. 

"North Glasgow is an area with under-utilised assets, and this framework will help us to realise these, benefiting not only the local communities, but the whole of the city.”
