Gartmore House Free ISSUE 7 July 2003 Donations Welcome THE VOICE OF YOUR COMMUNITY The Day the Earth Moved! inside At 6.44 a.m. on the morning of Friday 20 June the Aberfoyle area was hit by what sounded like a dull explosion and our whole house shook so badly that the bedroom windows P2 actually rattled. Our dogs, sprawled across the floor around the bed (I know-don’t ask), jerked their heads up. That was all. Realising that it was not breakfast time, they settled P4 down once more. It was us humans who were more apprehensive. P5 My first thought was that the gas tank had exploded. My wife and I both sat in stunned P6 silence but nothing further happened. The ceiling had not fallen in on us. The house still stood. So we waited for the sirens because surely somewhere there had been a dreadful P7 accident. Still silence. I then said to my wife that it must be one of two things: either it was a controlled explosion or it was an earthquake. I was told not to be so silly. Whoever heard P8 of an earthquake in Scotland, for goodness’ sake! Well, that day the earth moved for me – P9 I won an argument with my wife, an occurrence as rare as hens’ teeth. The earthquake fortunately caused no injury or damage to property. There were two further P10 tremors that morning, both lesser in intensity. Aberfoyle Village Enhancement Initiative P12 In the wee small hours of June 27 there Public Consultation P14 were three further tremors. These did not seem so violent in intensity as those of Exhibition of Plans the previous week.

And it all came about purely by chance. Stewart, who is a student at St Andrews University, was on 01324 a short visit to London when he was approached by a 625624 talent scout on the lookout for a male model for their new Specsaver advert. Being a student, Stewart thought the extra money might come in useful. His mother, Anne, was apparently sceptical when he mentioned on the telephone that he had been approached by a model agency.

  • Unadopted Minutes
    Draft UNADOPTED MINUTES Gartmore Community Council (GCC) Extraordinary General Meeting re Stirling Council’s Priority Based Budgeting (PBB) plans 8th January 2014 at 1930 in Gartmore Church Present: Ms A Jackson (Planning Representative), Ms J Billett (Chair), Mr W Glasse-Davies, Ms R Clements, Mr I Dinwoodie (Vice-Chair) Apologies: Mrs J Fleming (Secretary), Mr C Sheldon (Treasurer), Mr G McGarvey Councillors: Mr Fergus Wood, Mr Martin Earl Members of the public: Mr Iain Roe, Mrs Margaret Miller, Mrs Rosie Series, Mrs Liz McCormick, Mr John Davidson-Kelly, Mr Chris Naylor, Mrs Vicky Glasse-Davies, Ms Carol Irvine, Mr John Poulter, Mrs Mary Milton, Mrs Joy Henderson The meeting opened with Trossachs & Teith councillors FW and ME explaining the background and giving examples of the process of Priority Based Budgeting. They were very helpful in providing detail of the areas under discussion. [NB, a table of the Service Options discussed at the meeting follows the minutes below.] EDUCATION SERVICES RS and others were concerned about the proposal to withdraw specialist music teachers from primary schools (EDU054 – see below). The suggested move to group lessons is a concern; musical education of poorer pupils would suffer most; compare the proposed saving (£425K) with the cost of The Big Noise scheme (£600K); Big Noise is laudable but needs to get a bigger return for its investment. JDK insisted swimming lessons are not merely to teach pupils to swim, they provide opportunity for physical exertion, ditto PE lessons (EDU055). If the availability of the lessons were to be reduced to the pupils least able to pay (MM) this would be unmanageable within the school context.

Prev Min Approval pending. 4. Matt Aris None 5. Rural Donna Birrell of Rural Stirling Housing and Ronnie McRae of Rural Highland Small Stirling Communities Housing Trust spoke on the proposed development at Kinlochard. Mr Housing McRae’s organisation works specifically with small communities to identify their needs, which differ from larger rural, or urban communities. The social and economic benefit of residents are prioritised by incorporating sports facilities, training centres, and other community-identified needs into projected developments. It was stressed that the organisation seeks to complement, rather than compete with the work of local authority housing departments, and all houses built are subject to the Rural Housing Burden, which prevents their resale on the open market. Ms Birrell confirmed that a site visit has been made, but emphasised the fact that negotiations have not been entered into with any organisation or individual at this point, and that no purchase has been made, as the development is dependant on community approval. Concerns raised regarding lack of infrastructure identified transport, local shop premises, broadband provision, mobile phone provision, electrical capacity, and water provision for fire engines as required services which do not currently have the capacity to support a substantial influx of residents.

The original character assessment reports, part of a series of 30, mostly for a local authority area, included a “Background Chapter” on the formation of the landscape. These documents have been revised because feedback said they are useful, despite the fact that other sources of information are now readily available on the internet, unlike in the 1990’s when the first versions were produced. The content of the chapters varied considerably between the reports, and it has been restructured into a more standard format: Introduction, Physical Influences and Human Influences for all areas; and Cultural Influences sections for the majority. Some content variation still remains as the documents have been revised rather than rewritten, The information has been updated with input from the relevant Local Authorities.
