    NBG Report for KCC Meeting 21 Feb 2018 There Have Few Visible

    NBG Report for KCC Meeting 21 Feb 2018 There have few visible changes in connectivity over the last month. The status of the cabinets in the various villages also remains unchanged but on the same plan as last month. Detail from last month’s Broadband Delivery Group meeting is below. For Killearn, the connectivity of premises and the status of the 2 possible further cabinets is unchanged from last month. The locations remain unknown. Premises within G63 9LA, G63 9NP, G63 9PD, G63 9PT, G63 9QG, G63 9QN, G63 9QT, G63 9QY, G63 9RQ & G63 9SQ are shown as Accepting Orders, subject to line length as to whether the service will actually be available. In Balfron no premises appear to have had upgraded connections in the past month. Balmaha premises are again unchanged this month. In Blanefield/Strathblane no premises appear to have had upgraded connections in the past month but some postcodes are now showing that the both the first cabinets (G63 9BY and G63 9JW) need to be expanded. In Buchlyvie, there are no changes this month although almost all premises are now connected. Some are acknowledged as having slower speeds than desirable. Drymen premises have not changed status this month. Croftamie premises also appear unchanged. Properties on the G63 0NH postcode, covering parts of Gartness and Balfron Station and connected to the Drymen exchange appear to be Accepting Orders although they are on very long lines and are in a future plan to use FTTP technology to deliver faster speeds. Some premises on the A811 towards Gartocharn from the A809 junction near Drymen are now showing as Accepting Orders, although some of these are on long lines and so will probably not actually get the service.

There have Kingdom Abuse Survivors Project been many changes and a new organisational strategy has been developed. As part of our new strategy we developed a new Alcohol Support and Counselling Management structure to help us achieve our goal of becoming Scotland wide. We have also moved to new premises to accommodate our growing Relate Forth Valley staff and volunteer team. Our premises will also enable us to be fully accessible to disabled service users. Victim Support The Survivor Strategy developed by the Scottish Government enabled Crossroads Alloa funding through the Survivor Development Fund. We were successful in achieving funding for two years to deliver a service in Cornton Vale Alloa Family Centre prison. We also achieved funding towards our core services which has enabled us to continue with our Volunteer Development Manager role.

  • Model Scheme for the Establishment of Community Councils in Scotland

    Model Scheme for the Establishment of Community Councils in Scotland

    MODEL SCHEME FOR THE ESTABLISHMENT OF COMMUNITY COUNCILS IN SCOTLAND 1. Introduction Community Councils were first established in Scotland following the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973. Thereafter, the Local Government etc. (Scotland) Act, 1994, which produced the current system of unitary local authorities, made provision for the continuation of community councils. Under the legislation, every local community in Scotland is entitled to petition their local authority to establish a community council in their area. The Model Scheme for Community Councils in Scotland is designed to enable the establishment of community councils across Scotland and to provide a common minimum basic framework governing their creation and operation. 2. Statutory Purposes The statutory purposes of the community councils established under the Model Scheme are set out in Section 51 (2) of the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973, as follows: - ‘’In addition to any other purpose which a community council may pursue, the general purpose of a community council shall be to ascertain, co-ordinate and express to the local authorities for its area, and to public authorities, the views of the community which it represents, in relation to matters for which those authorities are responsible, and to take such action in the interests of that community as appears to it to be expedient and practicable’’ 3. The Role and Responsibilities of Community Councils The general purpose of community councils is to act as a voice for their local area. This will involve them articulating the views and concerns of local people in their area on a wide range of issues of public concern and make representations to their local authority, other public sector bodies and private agencies on matters within their sphere of interest.

    Written Submission from Falkirk Council – Petition Pe1102

    PE1102/F WRITTEN SUBMISSION FROM FALKIRK COUNCIL – PETITION PE1102 1. Background 1.1 Falkirk Council, like many local authorities, is strongly opposed to the closure of post offices in the Falkirk Council area. The Council recognises the important social function that post offices have, and that for many individuals in our communities, the post office functions as the main village or local shop. These facilities are used largely by elderly people, people with young children and those with mobility problems to purchase essential items. 1.2 The Council has for a number of years used post offices to provide services such as rent collection etc. Since 1979, Falkirk Council has supported the local area Post Office Network through the facility for tenants to make payment of rent at post offices. This was extended to include council tax payments in 1996. Our contract is with the Alliance & Leicester. Payments are made through a service known as 'BillPay'. Payments are made using plastic payment cards issued by Falkirk Council which can be used to pay rent and/or council tax at the Council's One-Stop-Shops and any post office in the UK. This method of payment is 1 of 7 options that are available to our customers. 1.3 As a result of the development of more efficient and convenient methods of payment, e.g. by Direct Debit, via the Web and by telephone, and the reduction in the Council's housing stock through the right to buy, the number of payment transactions made at post offices has reduced year on year over the past 10 to 15 years.
