Report by Director of Finance and Resources
1

Under reference to item 1 of the Minute of the meeting of the Council held on 27 September 2018 there was submitted a report by the Director of Finance & Resources relative to amendments to the Draft Scheme for the Establishment of Community Councils.  An amended Draft Scheme reflecting the proposed revisions was appended to the report.

 

The report set out the Council’s proposals to revise the Scheme  to take account of representations received following statutory public consultation on the content and provisions of the Draft Scheme and to include self-nomination for membership of community councils.   Once approved, in terms of the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973, a second and final phase of statutory public consultation on the revisions now proposed would be undertaken.  At the conclusion of the second and final phase of statutory public consultation, a report would be submitted to a special meeting of the Council called for that purpose, to consider the adoption of a duly revised Scheme for the Establishment of Community Councils (2019).

 

Decided:

 

(a) That the revisions to the Draft Scheme, as set out in the amended Draft Scheme appended to this report, be approved;

 

(b) That it be noted that a second and final phase of statutory public consultation would be carried out on the content and provisions of the amended Draft Scheme; and

 

 (c) That it be noted that at the end of the second and final phase of public consultation a report would be submitted to a special meeting of the Council called for that purpose, to consider the adoption of a duly revised Scheme for the Establishment of Community Councils (2019).
