The Chair thanked the Garioch Area office for their help throughout the year. The main work of the community council during the next year will include the outcomes from the Place Standards exercise. It was noted that police attendance had recently dropped off although reports were still being received. Residents remain frustrated by the lack of progress on the Sauchen to Cluny path.
