Councillors have agreed to continue to engage with the Scottish Government for further investment in ÓûÂþɬ communities facing depopulation, particularly affordable housing, digital and transport connectivity and more employment opportunities.
ÓûÂþɬ Council has identified potential projects that could be in the running to benefit from a share of up to £20 million of capital funding from the UK Government’s Levelling Up Fund.
Nine community groups in ÓûÂþɬ will be able to create new facilities or improve open spaces in their local area following successful bids to the council for a share of the Vibrant and Living Spaces Grant.
Work will progress on developing an outline business case for bringing a multi-million pound school and community campus to Mull, following a decision at today’s meeting of full Council.
ÓûÂþɬ Council’s Trading Standards Team is urging residents to be on their guard if they are approached at home by people offering tarmacking services.
