Thursday, 9 March, 2017


The Council is moving forward to the next stage of delivering its Place agenda in Auchinairn.  

Subject to Council approval, the building of a new community centre and nursery can now be progressed to financial close, after planning permission was granted for the project.

The new community facility will be built on the site of Auchinairn Primary School in Beech Road, Bishopbriggs and will be a single storey mixed use building for community facilities and nursery, playground, café, car parking and landscaping.
 
Council Leader, Rhondda Geekie, is pleased to see plans progressing.  She said, “In Auchinairn the East Dunbartonshire Community Planning Partnership is working to reduce inequality and target resources where they are needed the most.  

“As a result the Place approach has been adopted; a way of working with communities to alleviate local issues with tailored solutions, making people central to the process.

“A state of the art community centre and nursery school is part of the Place agenda in Auchinairn and I am pleased that we can now move to the next stage of its delivery.”
