Agenda and minutes

There were no apologies intimated.    

Councillor Colville declared a non-financial interest in Agenda item 3 (Traffic Management and Parking Review), by reason that he is the Chair of South Kintyre Development Trust (SKDT) who had submitted representation to proposals.  He left the room and took no part in the discussion thereon. 

Councillor Colville requested that agenda item 4 (Civic Furniture – Campbeltown) be taken ahead of agenda item 3 (Traffic Management and Parking Review).  With no one being otherwise minded, the Committee agreed to this request.
