Dumyat Centre Extension
After much discussion. the new extension for the Dumyat Centre will go ahead.
Meetings have taken place involving The Community Council, Clackmannanshire Council and Gladedale Ltd., resulting in securing the funding for this much needed facility.
We were prepared (the bus was booked!) to take our dispute to Gladedale's offices in Stirling, but they decided that we should talk. At the moment it looks likely that Gladedale will take on the project and fulfil their obligation under planning gain. We have one more meeting to finalise this part.
May we thank everyone involved with this action, all who logged on to web sites, e-mailed, agreed to demonstrate with us, wrote to Gladedale etc. Without your support we may have failed. We would also like to thank Councillor Eddie Carrick, whose efforts were pivotal in getting the right outcome for Menstrie.
It looks as if the work will commence around October and should be complete around March 2010. We will keep you updated as we get more information.
