Former Logie Secondary School site clean-up

Was called earlier this morning by Professor Malory Nye, Acting Principal of the Al-Maktoum Institute to be advised that, following my recent meeting with him when I raised residents' concerns about the state of the former Logie Secondary School site (earmarked for the proposed Al-Maktoum Cultural Centre), work starts today on tidying the site. The Al-Maktoum Foundation has employed the City Council (Dundee Contract Services) to undertake the work.
I am pleased that the area is to be tidied as there have been many concerns from residents about the state of the area.
Attended West End Community Council last night. An interesting talk by Historic Scotland and useful discussion on a number of local issues too.
