WATER SAFETY With the continuing warm weather it is always tempting to go swimming to cool off. Water may look safe, but it can be dangerous. Learn to spot and keep away from dangers. You may swim well in a warm indoor pool, but that does not mean that you will be able to swim in cold water. The dangers of water include: • it is very cold • there may be hidden currents • it can be difficult to get out (steep slimy banks) • it can be deep • there may be hidden rubbish, e.g. shopping trolleys, broken glass • there are no lifeguards • it is difficult to estimate depth • it may be polluted and may make you ill Moray Local Command Area - Community Policing Inspectors Elgin Wards - Inspector Graeme Allan [email protected]

REASON FOR REPORT 1.1 To ask the Committee to consider studies into potential flood protection schemes at Hopeman, Dallas, Portessie and Arradoul and agree a course of action, making recommendations to The Moray Council where there are budgetary implications. 1.2 To ask Committee to note the revised programme and a potential grant funding opportunity for Newmill Flood Protection Scheme Phase 2. 1.3 This report is submitted to Committee in terms of Section III (F) (21) of the Council's Scheme of Administration relating to the functions of the Council under the Flood Risk Management (Scotland) Act 2009. 2. RECOMMENDATION 2.1 It is recommended that Committee:- (i) recommend to The Moray Council that Flood Protection Schemes for Hopeman and Portessie are taken forward and the Capital Plan amended to include £830,000 for the Hopeman scheme and £3.65 million for the Portessie scheme; (ii) note that Dallas is considered to have flood protection to the normal 1 in 200 year design standard, and consider whether protection beyond that standard should be provided; (iii) agree that there is no practical or economic means of providing further flood protection to Arradoul by means of a Flood Protection Scheme and it therefore is not taken forward; and (iv) note the change to construction start date and opportunity of potential grant funding for Newmill Flood Protection Scheme Phase 2.

Burghead and Cummingston Community Council
Burghead and Cummingston Community Council Minute of regular meeting held at Burghead Harbour Office on Thursday 7th March 2013 Present: Billy Davidson (Chair), John Gordon (Secretary), Hilary Gloyer, Les Taylor, Abbey Main, Jim Patterson Apologies: Molly Fraser, Jennifer Walker In Attendance: Joan Megson, Kelly Croudace, Constable Martin Dyer, Community Warden – Tim Betts, Councillors Chris Tuke and Eric McGillivray The Chair opened the meeting and welcomed all those present. The meeting agreed to suspend standing orders to allow presentations by those in attendance. Councillor Eric McGillivray took the floor and referred to the forthcoming library closures in Burghead and Hopeman. Hopeman, he said, had reluctantly accepted the decision to close their library and were to hold a public meeting to set up a committee to run their library themselves. Eric advised the meeting that, in his opinion, any protest marches against the closures were futile and would be a complete waste of time. He suggested, taking a lead from Hopeman to accept what was a fait accompli and to apply to take over the running of the library by volunteers. Eric suggested that a Community Asset Transfer request be made to Moray Council to enable the Burghead Community to advance the possibility of volunteer takeover and handed over leaflets which explained the procedure. The Chair thanked Eric for his advice and advised him that Burghead was not going to “roll over” and accept the closure of their library without a fight and was invited to stay in the meeting to hear the representations of the Save Burghead Library Action Group who were present at the meeting.

SCOTTISH GOVERNMENT Issued on behalf of The Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland Not for Publication, Broadcast or use on Club Tapes before 0001 Hours on 26 May 2016 Recommendations for councillor numbers and wards submitted to Scottish Ministers The Local Government Boundary Commission for Scotland has submitted its recommendations on councillor numbers and wards for each of Scotland's 32 council areas to Scottish Ministers. These recommendations arise from the 5th Reviews of Local Government Electoral Arrangements which began in February 2014. The recommendations provide for 351 wards and 1219 councillors across Scotland, an overall decrease of 2 wards and 4 councillors relative to existing arrangements. Under the recommendations, representation of the electorate within council areas will be more evenly shared between councillors and across Scotland there will be greater equity in electoral representation. Ronnie Hinds, Chair of the Commission, said: "Today we have submitted to Scottish Ministers our recommendations for electoral arrangements which we believe are in the interests of effective and convenient local government across Scotland. These recommendations set out the number of councillors for each council area and the boundaries of the wards they will represent. We are grateful to councils and to the public who responded to our consultations over the last two years. Their input has been invaluable in shaping our proposals and while we must take account of our obligations under the legislation and consider the interests of the whole council area, we have been able to take on board many of the views expressed. The legislation which governs our reviews places equality of representation at the heart of what we do and we have delivered a set of recommendations that significantly improves electoral parity across Scotland and so provides for fairer local democracy and more effective local government ." 1 A summary of the recommendations for each council area is contained in the appendix to this release.

Black's Morayshire Directory, Including the Upper District of Banffshire
tfaU. 2*2. i m HE MOR CTORY. * i e^ % / X BLACKS MORAYSHIRE DIRECTORY, INCLUDING THE UPPER DISTRICTOF BANFFSHIRE. 1863^ ELGIN : PRINTED AND PUBLISHED BY JAMES BLACK, ELGIN COURANT OFFICE. SOLD BY THE AGENTS FOR THE COURANT; AND BY ALL BOOKSELLERS. : ELGIN PRINTED AT THE COURANT OFFICE, PREFACE, Thu ''Morayshire Directory" is issued in the hope that it will be found satisfactorily comprehensive and reliably accurate, The greatest possible care has been taken in verifying every particular contained in it ; but, where names and details are so numerous, absolute accuracy is almost impossible. A few changes have taken place since the first sheets were printed, but, so far as is known, they are unimportant, It is believed the Directory now issued may be fully depended upon as a Book of Reference, and a Guide for the County of Moray and the Upper District of Banffshire, Giving names and information for each town arid parish so fully, which has never before been attempted in a Directory for any County in the JTorth of Scotland, has enlarged the present work to a size far beyond anticipation, and has involved much expense, labour, and loss of time. It is hoped, however, that the completeness and accuracy of the Book, on which its value depends, will explain and atone for a little delay in its appearance. It has become so large that it could not be sold at the figure first mentioned without loss of money to a large extent, The price has therefore been fixed at Two and Sixpence, in order, if possible, to cover outlays, Digitized by the Internet Archive in 2010 with funding from National Library of Scotland http://www.archive.org/details/blacksmorayshire1863dire INDEX.

Polling Place Review
REPORT TO: SPECIAL MEETING OF MORAY COUNCIL ON WEDNESDAY 16 DECEMBER 2020 SUBJECT: POLLING DISTRICT AND POLLING PLACE REVIEW BY: DEPUTE CHIEF EXECUTIVE (EDUCATION, COMMUNITIES AND ORGANISATIONAL DEVELOPMENT) 1. REASON FOR REPORT 1.1 To seek approval for the revision of arrangements for polling districts and polling places following statutory review. 1.2 This report is submitted to Committee in terms of Section II (9) of the Council's Scheme of Administration relating to all election matters. 2. RECOMMENDATION 2.1 It is recommended that Council approve the proposals to amend the current polling district and polling place arrangements as summarised in Section 4. 3. BACKGROUND 3.1 Section 18(3) of the Representation of the People Act 1983 requires each Local Authority in Scotland to designate a polling place for each of its polling districts and to review these within 16 months of 1 October 2013 and every 5 years thereafter. 3.2 A polling place is defined as ‘a geographical area in which a polling station is located’. There is no legal definition of what a polling place is but it is widely accepted to be a specific building identified for the purpose, which the Local Authority is responsible for determining. 3.3 A polling station is the actual area where the process of voting takes place, and must be located within the polling place designated for the particular polling district for which the Returning Officer is responsible for determining. 3.4 In designating a polling place the Local Authority must demonstrate they have, as far as is practicable, met the criteria set in the legislation and in doing so must: • ensure all the electors in the constituency have such reasonable facilities for voting as are practicable in the circumstances; and • ensure that, so far as is reasonable and practicable, every polling place for which it is responsible is accessible to disabled electors.
