Crook of Devon was the venue for the Fossoway & District Community Council meeting on 1 June 2010. The minutes are now available for you to read.
The results of the Powmill Questionnaire were discussed and Ken Thomson of Thomson Homes updated the meeting about his company's further plans for the proposed development in Powmill of 300 houses, industrial units, a care home and a new school. Concerns were raised that the development would be too much for Powmill to bear. He was asked to take into account the results of the recent Questionnaire. There would be Community Consultation during the first weekend of September for residents to comment.
Sgt. Williams attended the first part of the meeting to discuss arrangements for T in the Park. Arrangements for policing and traffic management will be the same as last year.
The minutes also state that concerns were raised over the possible approval of The Moss site in Crook of Devon being used for travellers. Although the site had been cleared, there was at present no planning application for this site. Members of the audience expressed their worries, and there was considerable debate on the subject. The C.C. said they would keep an eye on it, and write to the council. In the meantime, residents should be encouraged to show their feelings by writing to their MSP, Local Councillors and the Leader of the Council.
There will be no meeting of the Community Council in July so the next meeting will take place on Tuesday 3 August 2010 in Carnbo Hall at 7.30pm.
