Approval of previous Minutes: The draft Minute of the meeting held in May 2016 was approved. 3. Matters Arising from Previous Minutes: 5.0 PKC Public Transport Consultation: Stagecoach Route 201 which links Kinross to Glenrothes via the five Portmoak settlements was subsidised and was part of a current review on Kinross-shire public transport by PKC. At the open consultation forum hosted by PKC, the CC and several residents had reflected views from Portmoak on the value of route 201. WCllrs were asked to clarify if the burden of subsidy fell only on PKC or did Fife Council make a contribution. 6.0 Local Boundary Commission: The recommendation of the Commission to Scottish Ministers to retain the boundaries of the existing Ward 8 (Kinross-shire) and its representation by four 4 ward councillors was warmly welcomed. If the anticipated support for this decision from PKC was sent to the Scottish Government, the CC would also write in support. 8.1 Boulders restricting passage of essential agricultural machinery on the Dryside Road at Muirs of Kinnesswood. The land on both sides of the carriageway was owned by a local resident. PKC did not feel it had a locus in resolving this longstanding matter.

  • Kinross-Shire Through the Archive
    A Guide to the History and Culture of Kinross-shire through the Archive Perth & Kinross Council Archive 1 Foreword I am delighted that the Friends of the Archive are now able to publish the second of their planned area booklets, this time about Kinross-shire. Like the rest of Perth and Kinross the history of Kinross-shire, and the former Burgh of Kinross, is fascinating in many different ways. I hope this new booklet will allow everyone who is interested, be they residents of Kinross-shire or not, to explore that history in meaningful ways. In the booklet you will find a comprehensive overview of the huge range of collections relevant to this topic including history, genealogy, industry, settlements, estates and anything else you may be interested in. Some of the material is ‘official’, like local authority documents, police and justice of the peace records. However, there is also guidance on exploring community-based collections put together by local people who were determined their ‘story’ would live on and be accessible to anyone who was interested. Personally I am much taken by the selection of illustrations of all aspects of life in Kinross-shire. These are, of course, merely a glimpse of the rich and varied sources which exist and can be explored with the help of the staff of the Archive. On page 6 there is a brief but comprehensive description of the types of records which are available and how they can be used to facilitate information searches of all kinds. If anyone is looking for particular information I would encourage them to read this section first.
