PվɫÇéƬ

Plans to upgrade play park facilities across PվɫÇéƬ and Bute have taken another step forward.

PվɫÇéƬ has raised the need for support for local households and businesses affected by October’s extreme weather with the Scottish Government.

A collaborative commitment to increase housing supply, and targeted action to tackle PվɫÇéƬ and Bute’s housing emergency, are just some of the key summary points from a Housing Summit held this week.

PվɫÇéƬ is inviting members of the public to have their say on plans to create a Municipal Harbour Authority in Oban when its six-week statutory public consultation goes live on Thursday (30 November).

PվɫÇéƬ and Bute councillors have approved proposals to tackle the area’s housing emergency by using new Scottish Government powers on Council Tax charges.

PվɫÇéƬ has agreed to additional financial backing for next year’s Royal National Mod (RNM) in Oban.

Ambitious plans to build hundreds of new affordable homes across PվɫÇéƬ and Bute have been unveiled as part of the latest update to the area’s Strategic Housing Investment Plan (SHIP).

Councillors have approved plans to boost PվɫÇéƬ and Bute’s economy by bringing empty business properties back into use throughout the area.

PվɫÇéƬ and Bute is one of a small number of council areas in Scotland to receive levelling up funding - £20 million – announced in yesterday’s UK Government Autumn Statement.
