‘Wee Donnie’, a councillor for almost four decades, has received the Freedom of Argyll and Bute for his decades-long service to local communities in mid-Argyll.
Calls are increasing for funding that will save council services from “a crisis point like never before - the impact for communities is serious and needs to be reconsidered”.
Plans to launch the UK’s first drone logistics hub at Oban Airport have reached a major milestone with planning permission approved for the proposed facility.
Car park upgrades, new signage and overnight parking for motocaravans are just some of the measures the council is planning to deliver, to help protect Argyll and Bute’s scenery and promote responsible tourism.
Residents of Argyll and Bute are being encouraged to find out if they are eligible for financial help from The Argyll and Bute Flexible Food Fund (ABFFF).
