Report by Executive Director – Development and Infrastructure Services

The Committee considered a report which sought agreement from Members to a draft Minute of Understanding between Argyll and Bute Council and Scottish Canals which would represent a new collaborative approach of working between both parties.  The purpose of the collaborative approach would be to drive forward the regeneration of Ardrishaig, Lochgilphead and settlements along the Crinan Canal corridor, to secure investment into the wider Mid Argyll area and to maximise local socio economic benefit offered to our area from the Crinan Canal.

Decision

The Committee –

1.    Noted the content of the report.

2.    Agreed to the attached Minute of Understanding and to its formal signing.
