    KINLOCHBERVIE COMMUNITY COUNCIL Minutes of Meeting 29th October 2019 at The Harbour Offices PRESENT: Graham Wild (Chair), Kirsty Holland, Christine MacKenzie, Margaret Meek, Murdo Macpherson, Sandra Armes-Harris, Mairi Eastcroft, Maaike Silcock (Minutes), 1. APOLOGIES: Andrea Boyes 2. MINUTES of the 24th September 2019 Two amendments were made to the minutes of the meeting held on the 24th September 2019. Item 3.5, Alexander Munro’s application for a café is still being considered. Planning has NOT been approved. Item 3.12, one of the gritter lorry drivers is NOT retiring, he has taken up the position as Assistant Harbour Master. The minutes were proposed by Graham and seconded by Christine. The minutes were approved. 3. MATTERS ARISING FROM THE MINUTES OF THE 24th September 2019 3.1 Having discussed the potential problems with having the electric hook-up at the Village Hall, Sandra was happy for it to be located by the public toilets at the Harbour. 3.2 The Pavements, overgrown with Gorse and Brambles need to be cut back. Graham will speak to Hugh to see when this might be done. 3.3 Graham will contact Hugh to find out who the new Area Manager at Highland Council is to replace Joanne Sutherland. Murdo will then re-send a letter to them, asking for a barrier to be placed along the edge of Big Brae to prevent further accidents. 1 3.4 Graham and Murdo will bolt the picnic benches at Loch Clash to the concrete slab. This will hopefully prevent campervans from monopolising the picnic area, preventing others from using it for what it was intended; having a picnic.
