Minutes:
The Community Transport Officer advised that there is no
firm progress to report on the land purchase although the Estates Department
continue to negotiate with Bidwells in Perth who are
the agents for the owners, Mr & Mrs Howe, Ardno
Estate.
The Council have established an estimate of likely costs
including all professional and legal fees and this will be set aside from this
year’s grant funding received from Strathclyde Partnership for Transport (SPT).
In a further development we have checked with Transport
Scotland that the work they are undertaking on the old road as an emergency
diversion route will not interfere with the turning circle and they have
confirmed there is no conflict.
