Decision details

The Council holds a Trust Fund in the name of the MacDougall Trust. Argyll Community Housing Association (ACHA) had made representations to the Area Committee seeking an award from the Trust for the benefit of the tenants of MacDougall Place.

Confirmation was sought and received by the Committee that there is no board of trustees that the Area Committee need to consult and there is no requirement for the family of John William MacDougall to be involved in the decision.

Decision

The Oban, Lorn and the Isles Area Committee approved that the resources required to update the communal areas at MacDougall Place (estimated to be £27,534) are met from the MacDougall Trust Fund.
