Community Councils and BARA

Yesterday (Tuesday 13th June) prior to the West End Community Council monthly meeting, Community Councillors and residents had a guided tour of the Riverside Nature Park, courtesy of the City Council's Leisure & Communities Department. It was really worthwhile & highlights the need to see the area opened to the public as soon as possible (or as soon as SEPA....)

My West End Community Council Update covers a number of issues locally including matters in Westfield Place, Shepherd's Loan, Perth Road and Taylor's Lane, together with crossing of Riverside Approach and graffiti matters. You can download this at :
