Friday has been a genuinely productive day. Had a very useful walkabout round the City Centre & a bit of the West End with two of the staff from Planning & Transportation to look at the siting/types of bus shelters installed. My main issue at the moment is the lack of timetables at stops without the electronic information. I am promsied that the Perth Road/Blackness area will have their timetables done first, hopefully by next month.Also met with a member of the same department's staff for an overview of the new on-line PublicAccess to planning applications made to the City Council. See http://bwarrant.dundeecity.gov.uk/publicaccess/tdc/tdc_home.aspx. This allows any citizen to search and view all planning applications, building warrants, etc in great depth.
Other meetings included a meeting about next Monday's Audit & Risk Management Sub-Committee, which I Chair, a meeting with housing officials regarding housing allocation matters and a meeting with a member of Leisure & Communities Staff about developing Magdalen Green.
Also a number of constituent enquiries involving housing benefit, rabbits on the Green, and traffic issues.
