  • Strathard Community Council Topic Discussion Action
    Strathard Community Council Minutes of meeting: Thursday 5th April 2018 Aberfoyle Memorial Hall Community Michelle Colquhoun Ros Dingwall. Gillian McEwan Councillors, Colin Smith, Fiona McEwan. Stuart Stephen . Attending: Cllr Martin Earl, Michelle Flynn.(Stirling Council), T McLellan (Minute Secretary). Billy Ronald (NP), Police Scotland, 36 members of the public Topic Discussion Action 1.Opening Introductions: Ros Dingwall chaired the meeting, introducing Donna Birrell of Rural Stirling Housing, and Ronnie McRae of Rural Highland Small Communities Housing Trust. 2.Apologies A Goulancourt, Trevor Geraghty 3. 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.

It complements the Landscape Character Type descriptions of the 2019 dataset. 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. The historic and cultural aspects have been reviewed and updated by Historic Environment Scotland. Gaps in information have been filled where possible.

  • Timber Traffic Management Plan: B829 Loch Ard Road
    Timber Traffic Management Plan: B829 Loch Ard road This timber traffic management plan has been prepared so that the structure of the roads named and associated verges are protected during timber haulage while preserving them for the use of local residents, agriculture and forestry. The purpose of this local agreement is specifically to ensure that reasonable access is maintained for the forestry owner/s and their neighbours, but in a sustainable fashion and in accordance with regional and national forest strategies. Pre-conditions for the use of the B829 Loch Ard road: The B829 is two carriageway between Aberfoyle and Kinlochard and single carriageway with passing places between Kinlochard and Inversnaid. The following agreement relates to the single carriageway section of the B829 public road which runs from Milton to Loch Chon. There are currently no weight (or other) restrictions on this road, however the width and geometry on the Milton – Loch Chon section is variable and large vehicles would have difficulty in passing in places. As such, early consultation with Stirling Council will be undertaken to agree mitigation measures. Timing and Frequency: Times and numbers of timber lorry movements per day will be restricted to minimise the adverse effect on other road users. In particular, liaison with Inversnaid Hotel will be carried out to schedule lorry movements in the same direction as the coaches (to avoid lorries meeting a coach head on). Existing restrictions on lorry movements past Aberfoyle Primary School during school hours will form part of the timing restrictions. In general, there will be no lorry movements past the school between 0845 to 0915 and 1500 to 1530 Monday to Friday during term times.

    CELEBRATING 100 PROJECTS FROM THE FORTH VALLEY AND LOMOND LEADER PROGRAMME 2007-2013 IMPROVING THE QUALITY OF LIFE IN RURAL FORTH VALLEY AND LOMOND THROUGH REVITALISED COMMUNITIES AND ENHANCED NATURAL ENVIRONMENTS Photo © SEAG FOREWORD I joined Forth Valley and Lomond LEADER Local Action Group during the last programme, when it only covered rural Stirling and West Dunbartonshire, and continued as Vice Chair and the Chair for this programme. For this LEADER programme the area expanded to take in rural Falkirk, rural Clackmannanshire and part of West Dunbartonshire more than doubling the population we covered. The escalation in LEADER coverage drove us to expand the Local Action Group (LAG) including many more people who had not had LEADER coverage before. The transition process was ultimately successful and the LAG became a knowledgeable sounding board for applications to LEADER, approving over £3m worth of projects in the area. This transition from a small LEADER area to a much larger and more varied rural area would not have been nearly as successful without the leadership and friendly manner of Dereck Fowles, Chair of Rural Stirling LEADER and first Chair of Forth Valley and Lomond LEADER. Sadly, Dereck passed away in November 2013 at the rip old age of 86, eleven of those years having been spent supporting and leading us in LEADER. Dereck was a friendly and welcoming Chair with a quick wit that was always used to put people at ease. Always very generous with his time and absolutely committed to the improvement of the lives of people living in rural Scotland, Dereck, more than any other single person, helped make this LEADER programme a success and he will be sorely missed in the Forth Valley and Lomond area and in rural Scotland.
