DRAFT MINUTE OF MEETING OF THE COMMUNITY PLANNING PARTNERSHIP EXECUTIVE GROUP OF 26 NOVEMBER 2015 There was submitted and noted draft Minute of Meeting of the Community Planning Partnership Executive Group of 26 November 2015, copies of which had previously been circulated. 3. EAST DUNBARTONSHIRE SINGLE OUTCOME AGREEMENT 2015-18 - SIX MONTH PROGRESS Consideration was given to Report CST/168/15/GM by the Director of Customer Services & Transformation, copies of which had previously been circulated, providing the Board with a six month report on progress of the current Single Outcome Agreement 2015-2018 (April to September 2015). Full details were contained within the Report and a copy of the six month progress report was attached as Appendix 1. Following consideration, the Board agreed:- a) to note the substantial progress being made in the implementation of the current Single Outcome Agreement; and b) to request that an annual report on progress for 2015/16 be submitted to the Board at its meeting in May 2016. 4. PARTNERSHIP IMPROVEMENT PROGRAMME 2016-2019 Consideration was given to Report CST/188/15/GM by the Director of Customer Services, copies of which had previously been circulated, providing the Partnership Board with the Partnership Improvement Programme 2016-2019 for approval, and for inclusion within the new Local Outcome Improvement Plan 2016-2019 contained within Agenda Item 7. Full details were contained within the Report and a copy of the Partnership Improvement Plan was attached as Appendix 1. The Community Planning and Partnerships Manager was heard further on the content of the Report and advised the Board that the Programme had been developed with assistance, from the Improvement Service. He referred to the workshops held throughout October to December 2015 and advised that a draft Programme had been developed based on feedback and previous improvement activity. He further advised that the proposal was to establish a Working Group with representation from across the Community Planning Partners in order to provide sufficient capacity to deliver the Programme, and, to assist with implementation. Partners would be invited to nominate suitable representatives over the next month, and, he suggested that representatives were currently active on other thematic partnerships. Page 2 COMMUNITY PLANNING PARTNERSHIP BOARD 10 DECEMBER 2015 Councillor O’Donnell commented that it was imperative representatives of any future Working Group were present at meetings of the group, and, that attendance was not optional. With regard to the re-branding of the Community Planning Partnership, and in response to comments from Councillor Jarvis regarding the Partnership being identifiable with the public, the Community Planning and Partnerships Manager advised that consideration around this particular aspect was being developed, including consideration of a name change and modification of the logo. The Chief Officer, Health and Social Care Partnership supported the comments made, and advised that following the formation of the Health and Social Care Partnership, there was the likelihood that the public could become confused with regards the role and function of the various Partnerships. She added that from an external perspective a distinctive entity would allow for better differentiation. Councillor O’Donnell associated himself with the comments made. Following discussion, during the course of which the Chair thanked everyone for their attendance at the Workshops, the Board agreed to:- a) approve the Partnership Improvement Programme for implementation and inclusion with the Local Outcome Improvement Plan 2016-19 (Agenda Item 5); and b) delegate the Council’s Community Planning and Partnerships Team to establish a Working Group with representation from across the CPP to implement the Programme and coordinate thematic partnership activity. 5. EAST DUNBARTONSHIRE LOCAL OUTCOME IMPROVEMENT PLAN 2016-2019 There was submitted Report CST/170/15/GM by the Director of Customer Services & Transformation, copies of which had previously been circulated, providing the Partnership with the new Local Outcome Improvement Plan (LOIP) 2016-2019. The Plan was effectively an update on the current SOA but now reflected the new strategic planning functions set out in the Community Empowerment (Scotland) Act 2015. The Report detailed that the LOIP reiterated the strategic direction, priorities and outcomes which had been agreed for delivery with community planning partners. The Plan was based on a robust analysis of local need evidenced through engagement with local people and communities together with data taken from the 2011 Census and the 2012 Scottish Index of Multiple Deprivation. It identified progress on achievement of our long term outcomes aimed at reducing inequality and disadvantage across our communities and engaging with local people in the design and delivery of public services. The Report further detailed that guidance around the development of LOIPs was expected from June 2016. Planning for delivery would be delegated to the following partnerships with performance reported to the Executive Group on a quarterly basis, with LOIP progress reports being submitted to the Board on an annual basis. · Outcome 1 – Economic Development · Outcome 2 – Employability · Outcome 3 – Delivering for Children and Young People · Outcome 4 – Community Safety · Outcome 5 & 6 – Health & Social Care Page 3 COMMUNITY PLANNING PARTNERSHIP BOARD 10 DECEMBER 2015 The Partnership noted that the update would also incorporate the revised Partnership Development Programme.

The GCV Green Network Partnership developed a GIS based approach to identify strategic regional opportunities for delivery of the Green Network in the Glasgow and Clyde Valley (GCV) Strategic Development Plan. The analysis uses a range of Green Network related datasets to identify strategic locations where the planning process and the targeting of resources can deliver multiple Green Network benefits. The approach was recognised by East Dunbartonshire Council as having the potential to identify Green Network Opportunities at the local authority and settlement scales providing data which could inform the production of the their Main Issues Report (MIR) and subsequent Local Development Plan (LDP).

  • Homes Near Top Scottish Schools Command £73K Price Premium
    NOT FOR BROADCAST OR PUBLICATION BEFORE SATURDAY 1 SEPTEMBER 2018 HOMES NEAR TOP SCOTTISH SCHOOLS COMMAND £73K PRICE PREMIUM Parents pay a premium of almost £73,000 (36%) on average compared to average house prices across Scotland Average property prices have reached £277,134 near Scotland’s top 20 state secondary schools Parents need to pay an average of £72,973 more to live in the catchment area of a top performing state secondary school in Scotland, according to new research from Bank of Scotland showing that average prices in these areas have now reached £277,134. Home buyers are paying, on average, a premium of over a third (36%) when compared to houses in surrounding areas (£204,162). This is a significantly higher premium than last year, when the top 20 Scottish state schools were commanding a comparatively smaller premium of £41,441 on average or 22% more than other properties within the same local authority. This difference is due to a change in the mix of schools in the top 20 in the past year – with a number of new schools in relatively more expensive areas in the latest survey. New entrants such as Hyndland Secondary School in Glasgow and James Gillespie's High School in Edinburgh have driven up the average premium costing an average of 76% and 69% respectively than other homes in the same local authorities – topping the table in first and second position as the most expensive school catchments. There are six new entrants to the top 20 schools this year, all of which fall within the top 10 most expensive school catchments.

The newsletter sets out a summary of the key achievements of housing, homelessness and repairs services for 2019/20, and highlights areas for further development. The report details performance information on a range of service areas that we have reported on for a number of years, as well as some Scottish Social Housing Charter indicators, which have been set out by the Scottish Housing Regulator. The Social Housing Charter is a way of monitoring how social landlords are performing and meeting customer expectations. The Charter sets out the standards and outcomes that all social landlords should aim to achieve when performing their everyday housing activities. This is the seventh year we have reported on the Charter. At the heart of the Charter is delivering good customer service and meeting customer expectations - something that we are committed to at East Dunbartonshire Council. The Charter aims to improve upon quality and standards of service across all social landlords. This will be achieved by customers having a clear idea of what they can expect from their landlords.
