Drum Brae Community Council Meeting

Tonight saw me head across the road to the Drum Brae Community Council meeting.  You really get a sense of community spirit here each month.  Another packed room in the Rannoch Centre saw all 3 incumbent Councillors in the one place at the one time.  You'd think there was an election coming up or something....

Anyhoo, here are some of the highlights as featured in my live tweet-a-thon using the #DrumbraeCC hashtag:

Good to hear crime down in #DrumBrae #Gyle ward - good work by local Police. ASB a key focus through youth engagement #DrumbraeCC

Exciting times! Audience interaction. All residents present to jot their policing priorities on a post-it note. #DrumbraeCC

Praise for the #drumbraelibraryhub - great facility and well worth the wait. Official opening this Friday at 1pm. #DrumbraeCC 

Barnton Hotel planning application for extra care assistance living housing - Public meeting at Cramond Kirk on 23/02 #DrumbraeCC 

Irresponsible Landlords a big issue at #DrumbraeCC - concerns over owners renting out to 'undesirables'. Letter to @paul_edie on it's way

Cold Calling a big issue in the area. Call for residents to work to get 51% in their area to respond to set up scheme #DrumbraeCC

When are the Council @west_team going to thin the trees in Drumbrae Park, asks one resident. #DrumbraeCC

That's all for tonight's #DrumbraeCC meeting - off home for Lady B's hame made beef n beer with roasties! #nomnomnom
