Following my previous post (March 5th) regarding the damage done to the notice board and the fencing around the recycyling centre in Sauchen, I can now confirm that:

1. The notice board is community-owned, not council-owned as I had originally thought and the perspex has twice been replaced after being vandalised. It is disheartening to hear that local youths are repeatedly destroying the hard work of the community. Plans are in place to re-locate local notices and I look forward to seeing this completed.

2. The fenced-off area around the recycling area again is not council-owned as originally thought but belongs to Stewart Milne homes. The community council has written to Stewart Milne Homes regarding the state of the fencing and a reply is awaited.
