• West Riverside, Balloch, where the £30m resort could be developed.

Scottish firm Flamingo Land Ltd has been named as the preferred developer by Scottish Enterprise for a 49-acre site at Loch Lomond Shores in Balloch.
Scottish Enterprise said the new development, Iconic Leisure Resort Loch Lomond, would represent a £30 million investment in the area.
Flamingo Land Ltd also operates the Flamingo Land theme park and resort in North Yorkshire.
Derek McCrindle, director of growth sector at Scottish Enterprise, said the new development “has the potential to generate even more long-term economic benefits for Scotland not only through job creation but by securing the National Park as a key international tourism destination”.
