The Ferry Local Community Planning Partnership

Lots of interesting issues discussed and matters progressed at November’s quarterly meeting of The Ferry Local Community Planning Partnership.There was an update on the rollout of the council’s waste and recycling collection service which is scheduled to reach Broughty Ferry in spring of next year (the reconfiguration of the original phases). There was also a proposal on the best way to look at and approve grants from the Ferry’s Dundee Partnership funds.

Organisations gave their updates and on behalf of Ferrytime I reminded everyone about the pop up shop at 39 Gray Street starting next week to 9 December and I was also delighted to report the good news that the timebank has received a grant from the National Lottery. It will ensure that Ferrytime, Dundee’s only remaining timebank, will continue to arrange volunteering exchanges for another year.

I was pleased to hear about the progress that’s been made on the multi-use games area at Gillies Park and that steps are being taken to replace the all-weather pitch at Dawson Park.

There was an update on the community infrastructure fund; the feasibility of twelve proposals are currently being investigated and costed, with 5 likely to go forward to a vote. There will be a public event in February where residents will be able to view the proposals. Voting for projects will take place at the end of March.

Community planning partnership meetings are open to the public. The next meeting is due to be held on 22 February 2018.
