  • Roads Revenue Programme 2008/2009 Purpose Of
    DMR13108 TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE 16 APRIL 2008 ROADS REVENUE PROGRAMME 2008/2009 PURPOSE OF Report by Director of Technical Services REPORT To propose the Roads Revenue Programme for 2008/2009 for Members’ consideration. COMPETENCE 1.1 There are no legal, financial or other constraints to the recommendations being implemented. 1.2 Financial provision is contained within the Comhairle’s Roads Revenue Estimates for the 2008/2009 financial year which allow for the expenditure detailed in this report. SUMMARY 2.1 Members are aware of the continuing maintenance programme undertaken to the roads network throughout the Comhairle’s area on an annual basis with these maintenance works including such items as resurfacing, surface dressing, and general repairs etc. 2.2 The Marshall Block shown in Appendix 1 summarises the proposed revenue expenditure under the various heads for the 2008/2009 financial year and the detailed programme is given in Appendix 2. 2.3 Members are asked to note that because of the unforeseen remedial works that may arise, minor changes may have to be carried out to the programme at departmental level throughout the course of the financial year. 2.4 As Members will be aware the road network has in the last twelve months deteriorated at a greater rate than usual. This is mainly due to the aging bitumen in the surface together with the high number of wet days in the last few months. As a result it is proposed that a proportion of the road surfacing budget be used for “Cut Out Patching.” Due to the rising cost of bitumen products and the stagnant nature of the budget it is not felt appropriate to look at longer sections of surfacing until the damage of the last twelve months has been repaired.

EADAR CANAAN IS GARRABOST (BETWEEN CANAAN AND GARRABOST): RELIGION IN DERICK THOMSON’S LEWIS POETRY Petra Johana Poncarová Since the Scottish Reformation of the sixteenth-century, the Protestant, Calvinist forms of Christianity have affected Scottish life and have become, in some attitudes, one of the “marks of Scottishness,” a “means of interpreting cultural and social realities in Scotland.”1 However treacherous and limiting such an assertion of Calvinism as an essential component of Scottish national character may be, the experience with radical Presbyterian Christianity has undoubtedly been one of the important features of life in the

  • Western Isles Local Plan: Pre Inquiry Update
    SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT COMMITTEE 13 JUNE 2007 WESTERN ISLES LOCAL PLAN: PRE INQUIRY UPDATE Report by Director for Sustainable Communities PURPOSE OF REPORT To provide an update on the Local Plan Inquiry process and consider further proposed modifications to the Local Plan. COMPETENCE 1.1 There are no legal or other constraints to the recommendations being implemented. The financial implications arising from the Local Plan Inquiry have not been included in core budgets for 2007-08 and monitoring of the associated unavoidable costs will be reported to Policy and Resources Committee as part of the normal financial monitoring process. SUMMARY 2.1 The statutory Development Plan preparation process allows for unresolved Local Plan consultation objections to be considered by an independent Reporter and, as noted at the last Committee series, provisional arrangements were made for a Local Plan Inquiry (LPI) to commence on 25 June 2007. However, no objectors have indicated to the Reporter that they wish their objection to be considered at formal LPI or informal hearing and accordingly the remaining outstanding objections will now be considered via written representation submissions. 2.2 A number of original objections to the Local Plan have been successfully resolved through negotiations and/or proposed modifications to the Local Plan. However, currently 7 objectors have indicated they are maintaining objections and a further 43 are assumed to be maintaining objections (i.e. the objector has not indicated to the Comhairle or Reporter that the objection is withdrawn). The position regarding objections is outlined in Appendix 1. 2.3 In response to recent negotiations, further proposed modifications to the Local Plan that will result in objection withdrawal are proposed in Appendix 2.

Stunning shell sand beaches fringed with machair, vast expanses of moorland, rugged hills, dramatic cliffs and surrounding seas all contain a rich biodiversity of flora, fauna and marine life. Together with a thriving Gaelic culture, this provides an inspiring island environment to live, study and work in, and a culturally rich place to explore as a visitor. The islands are privileged to be home to several award-winning contemporary Art Centres and Festivals, plus a creative trail of many smaller artist/maker run spaces. This publication aims to guide you to the galleries, shops and websites, where Art and Craft made in the Outer Hebrides can be enjoyed. En-route there are numerous sculptures, landmarks, historical and archaeological sites to visit. The guide documents some (but by no means all) of these contemplative places, which interact with the surrounding landscape, interpreting elements of island history and relationships with the natural environment. The Comhairle’s Heritage and Library Services are comprehensively detailed. Museum nan Eilean at Lews Castle in Stornoway, by special loan from the British Museum, is home to several of the Lewis Chessmen, one of the most significant archaeological finds in the UK. Throughout the islands a network of local historical societies, run by dedicated volunteers, hold a treasure trove of information, including photographs, oral histories, genealogies, croft histories and artefacts specific to their locality.
