As reported in Wednesday’s (23rd May) Stirling Observer, a meeting was held in Dunblane’s Victoria Halls, with a senior housing officer, a community link officer, an Independent Tenant Participation officer, and local Conservative Councillor Alastair Majury in attendance (the only councillor to do so).
There was a frank discussion, that highlighted the long running issues, and recent problems including the bomb disposal unit being called out on Sunday May 20th, there was also complaints raised about the meeting being held during the day, council officers did confirm that local Conservative Councillor Alastair Majury and others had already raised concerns about this. The outcome of this meeting was to establish that there was clear demand for a Residents and Tenants Association, also that this should be for all of Dunblane and not just the ‘Royals’, and for a meeting to be held in the evening so that people who were unable to attend the day meeting can learn about the association and volunteers found to form a Dunblane Residents and Tenants Association steering Group.
Local Conservative Councillor Alastair Majury said:
“I was pleased to be able to support the local residents, in their desire to sort the ongoing issues experienced in the Royals and throughout Dunblane. I would encourage as many people as possible to come along to the evening meeting to be held on the last Wednesday in June.”
Alastair Majury resides locally in the historic Scottish city of Dunblane, and is a Senior Regulatory Business Analyst working across the country.
