My colleague Cllr Helen Dick & I met with the new Tayside Police Chief Superintendent today and it was good to both meet him and discuss issues of concern and interest. For Helen, the issue she most wished to raise is a pedestrian safety & speeding cars issue in the Strathmartine area. For me, I dearly wish to see CCTV further extended in the West End. A helpful and positive exchange of views.
Earlier on, a meeting with the Director of Housing about a number of matters, including overshadowing of houses by overgrown trees in the West End - Pentland & Peddie Street.
Following a busy weekly surgery tonight at Blackness Primary School, I had been invited to attend a meeting of the River Crescent Residents' Association. Good to meet the residents there and we discussed various local issues, including pathways and the infamous "West End Smell."
