On Thursday, I took part in a walkabout with council officers round the Pentland area, similar to the one last Tuesday in Blackness, at which we identified and take action on local issues.
In Pentland, the following were taken up - amongst other issues :
 |
| Repairs to steps at various locations in Pentland are being undertaken |
 |
| Overgrown bushes in Pentand Avenue are to be trimmed and trees requiring trimming also reported |
 |
| I have reported paint vandalism to a utility box at Colinton Street/Saggar Street to British Telecom |
Later on Thursday, I chaired the latest meeting of the West End Christmas Fortnight committee, at Blackness Library.
We are very pleased with progress with this year's events and it will be the biggest and best Christmas Fortnight yet!
Christmas Fortnight runs from Saturday 22nd November to Saturday 6th December.
Yesterday, I had the pleasure of meeting Rev David Gray, new Minister at Logie and St John's (Cross) Church at the church's Community Cafe.
I look forward to working with him in the coming years and wish him every success in his new role.
