Letter Reporting Changes in Scottish Planning System
Below is a link to a full letter sent to Community Councils regarding planning reform.....
" I am writing to confirm that the changes to development management, enforcement and appeals came into force on 3 August. This letter does not set out all the changes but focuses on those which may have a direct impact on the relationship between planning authorities, developers and community councils in the modernised planning system. I have included pointers to where additional information and advice are available from the Scottish Government." Click to read the full letter |
Salt Bins Supplied |
 As winter approaches, Land and Environmental Services will shortly be placing grit bins throughout the city. They have advised that near to Dumbreck will be one at the corner of Mosspark Boulevard and Dumbreck Road, and one at Helen Street Police Station at Paisley Road West.
FACT: Though the word grit is often used to describe the substance used to treat the roads we do not use grit. It is rock salt and the brownish colour often mistaken for grit is actually caused by traces of clay left in the salt.

Bogus Callers: In recent months there have been some bogus callers (men in an unmarked van call saying they have seen repairs needed to roof or gutters, or offer to trim trees. They ask for cash up-front to pay for materials but don't return). The Police recommend that you do not deal with tradesmen who cold call at your door and take registration numbers of any unmarked vans.
If you suspect a bogus caller, please contact the website Newsdesk at armstj567@aol.com. |
Blue Recycling Bin: Unlike some other City departments Cleansing are a very helpful bunch. Several residents have asked if they can be supplied with a second blue bin. The Department say they'll be happy to deliver this to anyone who telephones a request to 287 9700 or 287 2063.
If one of your bins is not uplifted, then telephone 287 9700. |
