This morning, I had a very productive meeting with the Tullideph sheltered housing tenants at the sheltered lounge (see right). We discussed numerous local issues included safety on the pathway from Logie Street to Tullideph Street/Tullideph Place, local bus services and graffiti.
This afternoon, I had a similar and equally useful meeting with the sheltered tenants of Ancrum Place and Morven Terrace. Issues discussed included pavement repairs that are needed, grass/flower bed maintenance in the area and kitchen/bathroom upgrades.
I have raised all issues mentioned with appropriate council officers.
After a meeting with constituents at teatime, I attended tonight's West End Community Council meeting, at which there was an interesting presentation from Craig Bartholomew of ADAPT, Dundee CAB's money advice service, that is doing great work in helping local people deal with debt and financial hardship. At the Community Council, there was also discussion on numerous local issues such as graffiti and the state of local roundabouts. Tayside Police representatives also gave an update on local policing issues.
