Statement on Bank of Scotland closures

Plans to upgrade play park facilities across ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ and Bute have taken another step forward.

¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ 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 ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ and Bute’s housing emergency, are just some of the key summary points from a Housing Summit held this week.

¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ 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).

¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ 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.

If you’re looking for the perfect present this festive season, why not buy the ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ and Bute gift card and help support local businesses and jobs.

Councillors have approved plans to boost ¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ and Bute’s economy by bringing empty business properties back into use throughout the area.

¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥ has agreed to additional financial backing for next year’s Royal National Mod (RNM) in Oban.

¾ÅÐãÖ±²¥lors have approved proposals to tackle the area’s housing emergency by using new Scottish Government powers on Council Tax charges.
