Minutes:

Members considered a report providing the detail of the seabed moorings at Port Ellen, regulated by a licence granted by the Crown Estate and maintained by Argyll and Bute council.

 

Decision:

 

Members agreed:

 

1.         That in the event of a failure to identify a third party to take over the moorings at Port Ellen by April, 2013, the moorings should be removed and the regulating Crown Estate licence be terminated, with the chains being disposed of to the Harbour Association.

2.         However, if a third party was identified and a slight extension was required,  then the Area Committee would be agreeable to this.
