    I see that an American Company has been appointed to act as Consultant :-

    Moray Estates appointed US planning consultant Andres Duany and his company DPZ to guide the design of the town.
    Surely there are Scottish Consultants more than capable to do this and was it really necessary to all the way to the US.

    Deep into that darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing, doubting, dreaming dreams no mortal ever dared to dream before.
