New local community plans across Dundee

This morning, I attended the launch of the new local community plans across the eight wards covering the city, including the West End.    See photo - right.

This was a well-attended event at the Marryat Hall involving community representatives, council officers and councillors and representatives from other partners such as NHS Tayside, Tayside Police and Tayside Fire & Rescue.

The Community Plans aim to tackle many local issues in communities across Dundee and there is a detailed new plan covering the West End 2012-17.

The next meeting of the West End Local Community Planning Partnership takes place on Thursday of this week at 7pm at the Tartan Coffee House, 53 Perth Road - all residents welcome!    Here's the agenda for Thursday's meeting:
