MEETING HELD ON TUESDAY 15 JUNE 2010 IN KENNEDY HALL, DUNURE, AT 7.30PM
SEDERUNT:
Mr Phil Findlay(Chair); Mr Roy Storie(Treasurer); Mrs Jean McGinn, (Secretary) Mr Adam Montgomerie; Mr Rod Kruse, Mrs Dorothy Ward.
IN ATTENDANCE: Councillor Sandra Goldie; Councillor Mairi Low; Mrs Thea Petticrew, P C David Stewart.
APOLOGIES: Mr A Guthrie.
2. Adoption of minutes for meeting of Tuesday 18 May 2010 Proposed by Mr Rod Kruse, Seconded Mr Adam Montgomerie.
3. POLICE REPORT: The only incidents reported in the last month were missing person which was resolved, and vandalism to a car at Croy. Secretary also had received an email in response to last month’s questions: School bus reversing into parking area - driver and company have been spoken to by police. Truck in lay-by - haven’t managed to track driver down but may not be parking there in mornings at present. Helicopter in park - Police have spoken to owner who assures them he had to park there as the field he had permission to land on had animals in it. However he assures police he will not land in Kennedy Park unless there is an emergency. Mrs Ward advised police of the theft of a bottle of champagne from village shop but perpetrator was spoken to and asked to pay for this bottle, which he did. Mrs Ward also asks if the police when they come on their monthly visit with their mobile office, have a walk round about and let residents get to know them.
4. COUNCILLOR’S REPORT: Councillor Goldie again stressed that there will be cuts in services and will see what she can do about the need for repairs on Station Road. She also states that in the future Community Councils will play a more important role in what is needed for local communities.
Councillor Low stresses the need to encourage tourism and that we should be able to get a share of wind farm money. She suggests that the CCCF are helping by trying to connect all the villages in in the Carrick area of South Ayrshire. It has been suggested that all relevant community councils should pay a fee of £50 to help in their work to get funding. Our members are not in agreement with this as so far we have not received any wind farm money. A book has been published by CCCF and is on sale for £7.99.
5. LINK OFFICER’S REPORT: Mrs Petticrew explained how the system of garage site allocations worked and if anyone is wanting more information they should contact the office in Maybole. She has had the Roads Department look at the fallen fence from dairy to harbour but feels that her Department will have to replace this. Regarding the condition of roads she suggests we contact Mr Sanderson, Road Maintenance and ask him to come to our meeting to explain their roads projects. Advised Mrs Petticrew that the shrubs opposite the Waste Water Treatment Works are needing cut back as this is on a bend and to avoid the holes in the road vehicles move to the middle of the road and are unable to see traffic coming up from the village. Asked Mrs Petticrew to find out about maintenance at Old Kirkbride which is usually strimmed once a year.
6.. MATTERS ARISING
Sewage problem in Kennedy Park has been resolved and the area the workman had used for equipment has been left in a tidy condition.

DUNURE COMMUNITY COUNCIL
MEETING HELD ON TUESDAY 15 JUNE 2010 IN KENNEDY HALL, DUNURE, AT 7.30PM
SEDERUNT:
Mr Phil Findlay(Chair); Mr Roy Storie(Treasurer); Mrs Jean McGinn, (Secretary) Mr Adam Montgomerie; Mr Rod Kruse, Mrs Dorothy Ward.
IN ATTENDANCE: Councillor Sandra Goldie; Councillor Mairi Low; Mrs Thea Petticrew, P C David Stewart.
APOLOGIES: Mr A Guthrie.
2. Adoption of minutes for meeting of Tuesday 18 May 2010 Proposed by Mr Rod Kruse, Seconded Mr Adam Montgomerie.
3. POLICE REPORT: The only incidents reported in the last month were missing person which was resolved, and vandalism to a car at Croy. Secretary also had received an email in response to last month’s questions: School bus reversing into parking area - driver and company have been spoken to by police. Truck in lay-by - haven’t managed to track driver down but may not be parking there in mornings at present. Helicopter in park - Police have spoken to owner who assures them he had to park there as the field he had permission to land on had animals in it. However he assures police he will not land in Kennedy Park unless there is an emergency. Mrs Ward advised police of the theft of a bottle of champagne from village shop but perpetrator was spoken to and asked to pay for this bottle, which he did. Mrs Ward also asks if the police when they come on their monthly visit with their mobile office, have a walk round about and let residents get to know them.
4. COUNCILLOR’S REPORT: Councillor Goldie again stressed that there will be cuts in services and will see what she can do about the need for repairs on Station Road. She also states that in the future Community Councils will play a more important role in what is needed for local communities.
Councillor Low stresses the need to encourage tourism and that we should be able to get a share of wind farm money. She suggests that the CCCF are helping by trying to connect all the villages in in the Carrick area of South Ayrshire. It has been suggested that all relevant community councils should pay a fee of £50 to help in their work to get funding. Our members are not in agreement with this as so far we have not received any wind farm money. A book has been published by CCCF and is on sale for £7.99.
5. LINK OFFICER’S REPORT: Mrs Petticrew explained how the system of garage site allocations worked and if anyone is wanting more information they should contact the office in Maybole. She has had the Roads Department look at the fallen fence from dairy to harbour but feels that her Department will have to replace this. Regarding the condition of roads she suggests we contact Mr Sanderson, Road Maintenance and ask him to come to our meeting to explain their roads projects. Advised Mrs Petticrew that the shrubs opposite the Waste Water Treatment Works are needing cut back as this is on a bend and to avoid the holes in the road vehicles move to the middle of the road and are unable to see traffic coming up from the village. Asked Mrs Petticrew to find out about maintenance at Old Kirkbride which is usually strimmed once a year.
6.. MATTERS ARISING
Sewage problem in Kennedy Park has been resolved and the area the workman had used for equipment has been left in a tidy condition.

3. POLICE REPORT
: Police report advised of the theft of an outboard engine from harbour. No suspects at this time. On 13 May road traffic accident near Dunure Mains. Minor injuries.No other incidents of note. P C Aitken was asked if there was anything further on the truck which parks in the lay by at Cemetery early mornings, but police have been unable to have a word with this driver. Also if anything has been done about the problem of a helicopter landing in the Kennedy Park, as we are concerned about the safety aspect of this.
4. COUNCILLOR’S REPORT
: Councillor Goldie reports things are just settling down after the election and hopefully will have something to report by next month as to how things will move forward. She was advised of the poor condition of Station Road at the turn adjacent to harbour. The whole surface is breaking up. Councillor Goldie again mentioned the lack of funds for road repairs, but will do what she can.
5. LINK OFFICER’S REPORT: Mrs Petticrew confirmed staff for the toilets will soon be in place.
Shrubs at Carrick Place will now be cut back twice yearly by the Council. The fence from Dairy to harbour has been reported to Roads Department who will have a look at this.

Mr Findlay mentioned that the multi-play area had one or two breaks in the surface which might cause users to trip. Mrs Petticrew will get someone along to have a look.
6. PAST CHAIRMAN’S REPORT:
Mr Montgomerie reported that there were not so many big issues over the past year, the main concern being the application from Balig for a large holiday park.

In Attendance
: Mrs Thea Petticrew, Councillor Sandra Goldie, Mrs Dorothy Ward, P C William Deans, P C Bryan Meehan
1.
Welcome
Mrs Petticrew welcomed everyone to the meeting, introduced herself, explained the Election had resulted in the appointment of seven members and proceeded to ask for nominations for the posts of Chair, Vice Chair, Treasurer and Secretary.

Treasurer - Roy G. Storie
Mrs Petticrew then welcomed everyone to their new positions and handed the Chair over to Mr Philip Findlay.
3. Adoption of Minutes from meeting of 16 March 2010. Proposed Mr Rod Kruse; Seconded Mr Roy Storie.
4. Councillor’s Report: As the General Election is imminent, Council business has slowed down somewhat. There is still the problem of lack of finance to tackle road repairs to name but one area. Councillor Goldie was congratulated on getting at least some of the potholes attended to and we hope this is ongoing.
5. Link Officer’s Report: Mrs Petticrew has contacted various persons in respect of the Labyrinth. The area where the labyrinth is situated comes under a SSSI. Advice has also been sought from planning department. At the end of the day we will have to get the steps made safe, and there may be an alternative route to these. Mr Guthrie is at the moment seeking funding for the hand rail, and Mrs Petticrew will help with materials for the steps and see if she can ger someone to construct these.
Mrs Petticrew advises that her department has been looking into ownership of grass areas which the Council have historically kept tidy. Owing to cut backs of money and labour, anything which does not belong to South Ayrshire Council will no longer be cut. This will not affect Dunure.
6. MATTERS ARISING:
Sewage in Kennedy Park: Email from Alan Ferguson Scottish Water. 12 Castle Drive still connected to old outfall. This will be complete within 4 - 6 weeks.
Wall bordering park: This has now been satisfactorily completed.
Toilets: Mrs Petticrew hopes to have matter resolved soon.
Fisherton School: Mr Guthrie took some of the children on a successful beach clean. Mrs McGinn has arranged to have some of the older children draw Fisherton Church for the Church Newsletter. Mr Guthrie has also been asked about the children helping to tidy up the Butterfly Garden.
7. FINANCIAL REPORT: Mr Storie distributed draft copies of the financial report for Audit. At the end of the financial year we have in our Admin Account the sum of £32.24 which will be enough to cover the Audit expenses. £2493.07 is in the New Hall Account.

9. ANY OTHER BUSINESS
Shrubs in gardens east side of Kennedy Drive: Secretary explained that on the west side of Carrick Place, shrubs are overhanging the road. These are from the Kennedy Drive gardens, and a resident has already reported this as cars travelling along Carrick Place are getting scratched. Mrs Petticrew will see what she can do here.
Fence on road side below “dairy”. This fence has collapsed (posts rotten) and Mrs Petticrew will get roads dept to look at this.
Helicopter: This has again landed in Kennedy Park, and been reported to police and Altantic House. We are concerned about the safety aspect here as this is a public park and should not be used for this purpose.
Letter from David Squires re Brown Carrick View Indicator: No-one could give much information here so Secretary will send copy of letter and photograph to Mrs Petticrew and Councillor Goldie to see if they can help.
Kennedy Park: Mr Guthrie asked the Community Council’s opinion on a proposal to allow an ice-cream van into the park. While this seems an idea worth considering, it was pointed out that this has never been allowed before. It could result in an increase in litter, and would be in competition with our local businesses. Secretary will write to Kennedy Hall & Park Committee with our comments.
Mrs Dorothy Ward was co-opted on to the Community Council until end of March 2011. This was proposed by Mr Guthrie, Seconded by Mr Adam Montgomerie.
Meeting closed at 9.00pm. Date of next meeting will be Tuesday 18 May and will be the Annual General Meeting.

MEETING HELD ON TUESDAY 16 March 2010. IN KENNEDY HALL, DUNURE, AT 7.30PM.
1. SEDERUNT: Mr Adam Montgomerie; Mrs Jean McGinn, Mr Roy Storie, Mr Rod Kruse; Mr Andrew Guthrie; Mr Angus MacLeod
IN ATTENDANCE:Cllr Sandra Goldie; Cllr Mairi Low; P C William Deans; P C David Stewart
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC:
APOLOGIES: Mrs Thea Petticrew; Mr Philip Findlay
2. Adoption of minutes for meeting of Tuesday 16 February 2010 - Proposed: Mr R Kruse. Seconded: Mr Adam Montgomerie.
3. POLICE REPORT: P C William Deans had nothing to report. Comments were made about the large vehicle which parks in the lay by at the Cemetery early in the morning. The vehicle is causing erosion to the bank adjacent to the cemetery. This has a caused a large muddy hole to form. P C Deans will ask P C Hamil to make the truck driver aware of this problem.
4. COUNCILLOR’S REPORT: Councillor Goldie handed out copies of the most recent Chief Executive’s Bulletin. There has been a positive response to the Regeneration Project in Ayr. There is still no good news on road repairs. Advised Councillor Goldie of the problem of water still running across the road at Lagg Brae. During the frosty weather this had been very icy and may have been the cause of a road traffic accident. Councillor Low spoke of the grants available through Ayrshire Leader and that we may benefit from them. Informed us of CCCF who would like to encourage visitors to visit and stay in the south of the area instead of just passing through. Also spoke about energy saving heating. We advised her that until the hall has had repairs to the roof and other heat saving measures, the search for new heating was on hold.
5. LINK OFFICER’S REPORT: Mrs Petticrew sent her apologies and asked to be contacted with any issues of concern. She has spoken to Mrs Linton about the state of the lay by at the Cemetery but no money available to do anything about this meantime.
6. MATTERS ARISING
Ÿ Labyrinth: Mrs Petticrew’s update on this: The Criminal Justice is unable to construct the steps, also the Labyrinth has been constructed on a Site of Special Scientific Interest, and she has written to the Planning Section for clarification on this.

IN ATTENDANCE:Cllr Sandra Goldie; Cllr Mairi Low; P C William Deans; P C David Stewart
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC:
APOLOGIES: Mrs Thea Petticrew; Mr Philip Findlay
2. Adoption of minutes for meeting of Tuesday 16 February 2010 - Proposed: Mr R Kruse. Seconded: Mr Adam Montgomerie.
3. POLICE REPORT: P C William Deans had nothing to report. Comments were made about the large vehicle which parks in the lay by at the Cemetery early in the morning. The vehicle is causing erosion to the bank adjacent to the cemetery. This has a caused a large muddy hole to form. P C Deans will ask P C Hamil to make the truck driver aware of this problem.
4. COUNCILLOR’S REPORT: Councillor Goldie handed out copies of the most recent Chief Executive’s Bulletin. There has been a positive response to the Regeneration Project in Ayr. There is still no good news on road repairs. Advised Councillor Goldie of the problem of water still running across the road at Lagg Brae. During the frosty weather this had been very icy and may have been the cause of a road traffic accident. Councillor Low spoke of the grants available through Ayrshire Leader and that we may benefit from them. Informed us of CCCF who would like to encourage visitors to visit and stay in the south of the area instead of just passing through. Also spoke about energy saving heating. We advised her that until the hall has had repairs to the roof and other heat saving measures, the search for new heating was on hold.
5. LINK OFFICER’S REPORT: Mrs Petticrew sent her apologies and asked to be contacted with any issues of concern. She has spoken to Mrs Linton about the state of the lay by at the Cemetery but no money available to do anything about this meantime.
6. MATTERS ARISING
Ÿ Labyrinth: Mrs Petticrew’s update on this: The Criminal Justice is unable to construct the steps, also the Labyrinth has been constructed on a Site of Special Scientific Interest, and she has written to the Planning Section for clarification on this. If everything is O K, she may be able to get a local contractor to donate time or money for the construction. Mrs Petticrew will be nable to buy necessary materials.
Sewage: Kennedy Park. Scottish Water confirm there is no problem at the moment, however we will contact them to ask what they will do to permanently solve this as there should now be no raw sewage anywhere in that area.
Ÿ Wall bordering Kennedy Park at junction with Kennedy Drive: Mrs McCreath confirms the Insurance Companies are now paying out and she is anxious to get this wall rebuilt before the Easter Weekend. (Health & Safety Issues and also to improve the look of the area.

3. POLICE REPORT: P C John Hamil phoned with his apologies but reported that there had been no incidents since the previous meeting. Any problems we have should be passed on to him.
4. COUNCILLOR’S REPORT: Councillor Goldie handed out copies of the Chief Executive’s Bulletin in which he sets out the way forward for South Ayrshire Council. We could report that there had been a bit of repair work done on the A719 (large potholes at school etc) but the whole surface area of the road south of the Farm Park is in very poor condition and beginning to disintegrate. Councillor Goldie spoke of the diversion on the A70 as work will be ongoing for about a month between the Holmston and Dobbies roundabouts. The road via Oswald Bridge is particularly bad. The same could be said for the whole country after the severe winter, the roads having been neglected for some time.
5. LINK OFFICER’S REPORT: Mrs Petticrew is now in a position where the council will pay for the materials for the Labyrinth Steps (Community Service will undertake the work) and all Mr Guthrie has to get a grant for is the railing leading down to the labyrinth. This railing must be properly secured to the rock and may need to get advice on this.
Mr Storie commented on the poor condition of the lay-by at the Cemetery which is being eroded by large vehicles. Mrs Petticrew will speak with Ms Linton and ask her to have a look at this.
6. MATTERS ARISING
Ÿ Labyrinth: This was discussed with Mrs Petticrew and will leave the matter with Mr Guthrie..
Ÿ Wall bordering Kennedy Park at junction with Kennedy Drive: ~There is nothing further to report here at the moment as Mrs McCreath (Kennedy Hall & Park Committee is in touch with the two Insurance Companies.

DUNURE COMMUNITY COUNCIL
MEETING HELD ON TUESDAY 17 November 2009 IN KENNEDY HALL, DUNURE, AT 7.30PM.
1. SEDERUNT: Mr Adam Montgomerie; Mrs Jean McGinn, Mr Andrew Guthrie;
Mrs Margaret Masterman, Mr Angus MacLeod.
IN ATTENDANCE: Councillor Sandra Goldie;
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC:
APOLOGIES: Mr Philip Findlay; Mr Roy Storie; Mr Rod Kruse; Mrs Thea Petticrew.
2. Adoption of minutes for meeting of Tuesday 20 October 2009
Proposed by Mrs M Masterman. Seconded Mr A Guthrie.
3. POLICE REPORT: No report available at this time.
4. COUNCILLOR’S REPORT: Councillor Goldie reported there has been a poor response to the Council’s Community Conversations held in various venues throughout South Ayrshire. Mr Guthrie suggested the title and format may have put some people off from attending these meetings. It was reported to Councillor Goldie that part of Station Road had been repaired but it was pointed out that there was a very large hole on the main A719 adjacent to school (at the bottom of Coal Pit Road).
We have been concerned about the lack of information from British Legion of their attendance at the War Memorial on Remembrance Sunday and advised Councillor Goldie of this. It turned out after Rev Arrick Wilkinson arranging a short laying of wreaths at 2pm, the British Legion had turned up at 1pm without any indication of this to the village or indeed the minister.
5. OPEN FORUM: No members of the public were present.
6. MATTERS ARISING:
Ÿ Labyrinth: We have two applications for grants but no estimate as yet from Mrs Petticrew.
Ÿ Wall at Kennedy Park. Mr Storie commented (in his absence) that the wall had not been repaired very satisfactorily. Will pass this on to Mrs Petticrew but coincidentally there has been a further area of wall damaged adjacent to the newly repaired part.
Ÿ Balig Planning Application: This was delayed until 23 November, but we advised Ms Buchanan it was doubtful if we could have a representative at this meeting.
Ÿ Remembrance Sunday: Mr Montgomerie laid the wreath as agreed but as previously recorded it is unsatisfactory that we cannot get proper information from the British Legion on their attendance.
Ÿ Sewage Seepage in Kennedy Park. This has been cleared by Scottish Water but as there is obviously some underlying problem here, Kennedy Hall & Park Committee will contact Scottish Water for an investigation into this problem.
7. FINANCIAL REPORT:
