Issue - meetings

The Council considered a report outlining the process used to formulate the prioritised list of actions for Argyll and Bute in relation to flood risk management. The prioritised list of actions would be considered by the national Prioritisation Group for inclusion in the Flood Management Strategies published by the Scottish Government in December 2015 and Local Flood Risk Management Plans published by Local Authorities in June 2016.

Decision

The Council –

1.    Noted the report and that funding arrangements were yet to be announced by the Scottish Government.

2.    Approved that the Prioritised List of Actions represents the Council’s preferred order for dealing with flood risk, subject to any funding being available.
