Councillor Kieron Green, Policy Lead for Planning and Regulatory Services:
''The council is committed to supporting and encouraging long-term, sustainable economic growth across Argyll and Bute.
We know that the stunning landscape and quality architecture continue to attract people to the area to work, live and visit. Our planning team play a vital role looking at how residential and commercial development can add to the area’s success.
As the council works towards reducing carbon emissions, the awards not only celebrate good design but also recognise innovative ways new buildings help support our environment. The awards provide an opportunity to have your work professionally endorsed by the council and its planning team.”
