The village of Dunure is in South Ayrshire, Scotland, and was a small fishing village, but now it has become a place of people to come for days out. The older fishing generation have all but gone, and new people with new ways are moving in, so the village is now in a state flux.Not altogether a bad thing. The fishing is dying out and so we will have to adjust to the changes.

We brought to Councillor Goldie’s attention that on the Road Improvement Plan 2015/16 - Dunure did not even have a mention and we were very disappointed.

DUNURE COMMUNITY COUNCIL
MEETING HELD IN KENNEDY HALL, DUNURE,
On: Tuesday, 17th March 2015 at 7.30pm.
SEDERUNT: Mr Alex Gibson (Vice Chair), Elaine McQuade (Acting Secretary),
Angus Craig, Steven Izatt (Co-optee)
PRESENT: Sandra Goldie (Councillor), Mrs Colette McGarva, (Link Officer)
Police Officers: Graeme Gordon
MEMBERS OF THE PUBLIC: Alastair McLeod and Moira Kennedy.
APOLOGIES: Phil Findlay (Chair), Roy Storie (Treasurer) and Andy Guthrie.
Adoption of Minutes: Tue, 17th February, 2015
Proposed: Steve Izatt Seconded: Alex Gibson
Police Report : No real crime reported. The only things that did happen were a) Silent 999 call and b) Nuisance quad bikes at Balig Farm.
Councillor’s Report:
• Councillor Goldie reported that she had still heard nothing back from Ayrshire Roads Alliance regarding the state of our roads and members of the Committee reiterated although we were pleased with the road resurfacing that had been done at the end of Station Road, (road above harbour) there were still many problems on the roads in the local vicinity and indeed on A719 that still need to be addressed. We just wanted to know how work is prioritised with the Roads Department, who checks quality of materials for each job to ensure job is carried out correctly/who inspects work once the job has been done etc.
• Action : Councillor Goldie had said that she would contact Chief Executive Officer,
Eileen Howat to try to get some answers for us, as Dunure Community Councillors feel that they are asking the same old questions month after month and getting no real answers to the road problems.
Link Officer’s Report:
• Regarding Funding £3,230.00 –( £1,000.00 of which is for play area) deposited in
Dunure Community Council Bank Account for 3 x notice boards and apparatus for small play area in Kennedy Drive. Steve Izatt’s wife – Parent Council Committee, had emailed photo of play area site to SAC to confirm that this land belongs to them. Although the sum of money would be very much appreciated on investigating things further it was found out that with all the safety legislation safety rubber flooring would be required under the play apparatus and the cost of that alone would probably be £10,000.
Colette McGarva, Link Officer then handed us paperwork relating to possible funding that we could apply for through SAC – Social Investment Scotland (SIS) has teamed up with Asda to launch a new fund aimed at supporting social enterprises to make the step change they need to increase their impact.
Asda Community Capital will donate the funds arising from the bag change to support innovative social enterprises and community projects across Scotland. In what is a UK-first, the partnership with SIS will see half of the proceeds distributed through loans, helping third sector organisations who would otherwise find it difficult to get access to funding.
Colette McGarva mentioned that there was a new children’s play area in Belleisle Park, which would certainly be a good one to remodel ours on.
• Notice Boards – We asked Collette where we could source our new Notice Boards –
she mentioned : David Ogilvy – Action: Elaine McQuade (Sec) will source to get some ideas of style and cost and will report back at next meeting.
• Colette McGarva (Link Officer) confirmed that she had been in touch with Legal Department of SAC with regard to our role as a Community Council to clarify what our responsibilities and constraints were for us to actually make all the people on the Dunure Electoral Register and in the wider community aware of The Knoweside Wind Farm and their intentions and the meaning of the ACE Plan ( Ascertain, Coordinate and Express) .
Colette confirmed we were doing all the right positive steps to engage with Community in preparing our newsletter and we did not need to include the broader spectrum eg. Tourists/non residential citizens/ visitors to area etc.
• Dunure Electoral Register – Steve Izatt confirmed that he was now in possession of this after lots of communication backwards and forwards and after signing the legalities involved they allowed him to have it.
Action: Steve Izatt - will now email this information onto Elaine McQuade (Sec)
for safe keeping and in readiness to send out flyers/newsletters when the time comes.
• Knoweside Windfarm Flyer - now ready to be sent – just waiting of word from SAC Planning Department.
Matters Arising:
• Dot Ward had been handed card and gift (Potted Orchid) as a token of Dunure Community Council’s appreciation as agreed and she was delighted with the gift and conveyed her thanks to us all.
• Jean McGinn (former Secretary) is still to receive her Garden Centre Gift Vouchers as Roy Storie (Treasurer) thought that it would be a nice idea for all members to sign a card bearing in mind her many years of duty within Dunure Community Council and if Jean was in agreement to have a presentation at our next meeting in April.
If she would prefer no fuss, Roy and Elaine will hand the Gift Vouchers into Jean at her home.
• Hall & Park’s Meeting – Alex Gibson (Vice Chair) and Elaine McQuade (Sec) attended meeting which took place on Tuesday, 10th March 2015, where Alex gave a very detailed talk and updated them on Knowside Wind Farm also NCCB.
Alex also mentioned that we were intending to deliver flyers to everyone on the Voter’s Electoral list within the Dunure Community Ward.
Janey McCreath (Chair) of Hall & Parks suggested that we should add a front page to our current flyer to attract attention; not only to try to make them aware of what is happening within their community, but attempt to make them realise that their views count and that their support within the local community would be very much appreciated.
• Proposed Railway Walk/Cycle Path. Mr Bill McKinlay has been in touch with regard to giving a talk on proposed Walk/Cycle Path. He is now hoping to attend our April Meeting. Action: Elaine McQuade will keep in touch.
• Website – (www.dunure.net) - Steve Izatt has now set this up. Everyone thought this was very well set up. Steve hoping to keep this up-dated on a regular basis with relevant information relating to Dunure.
• Elaine McQuade (Sec) informed meeting about the issue of being inundated with various emails not necessary relating to us. She will endeavour to filter emails and send out only ones that are relevant to us. Also now that website up and running, Elaine will be sending Steve Izatt adopted Minutes of Meetings to be put on the website for general public to read.
• Future Flyers/Notices etc.: Moira McLeod kindly volunteered that if any notices, flyers were required in the future that she would be happy to help design them.
• Forthcoming Community Council Elections: - Steve Izatt confirmed that he had received his necessary form currently being a Co-optee and completed same to enable him to become full Community Council member.
Elaine McQuade (Sec) confirmed that she had given the Community Council Election notices to Andy Guthrie. In turn, Andy will place same into the two current notice boards that we have available (Harbour & Kennedy Drive). Elaine has placed one in the local Food Store.
There are spaces for three new members, including that of Steve Izatt becoming a full member. The necessary forms to can be obtained from all existing Councillors.
• Funding: Steve Izatt had been in touch with Ailsa Horizons just to put out feelers regarding possible funding for new village hall.
• Brown Signs: It was also suggested that it would be a good idea to have brown signs on the main road (A719) at each end of village to encourage general public/tourists into our village indicating the historical interests eg. 13th Century Castle.
• Community Council Meetings: It would be a good idea to invite members of Hall & Parks Committee, Dunure Harbour Committee, Parent’s Council Committee / School and local Church to our monthly meetings with a view to all pulling together and raising necessary funds for our village requirements.

MINUTES OF MEETING HELD IN KENNEDY HALL, DUNURE, ON TUESDAY 16 APRIL 2013 AT 7.30PM.
The meeting was opened by the South Ayrshire Council representative, Linda Warwick, who circulated a Sederunt.
Present: Philip Findlay, Elaine McQuade, Roy Storie, Dorothy Ward.
Councillors: Sandra Goldie, William Grant
Council Representative Linda Warwick.
Organisation of Office Bearers.
The following posts were filled:
CHAIR: Philip Findlay - nominated by R Storie, seconded by D Ward.
SECRETARY: Jean McGinn - nominated by P Findlay, seconded by R Storie
TREASURER: Roy Storie - nominated by D Ward, seconded by E McQuade
No names were put forward for contact with planning and licensing.
Those posts being filled Linda Warwick indicated that two further members could be co-opted to complete the committee. She then handed the meeting over to the Chair and the committee expressed their thanks.
Sederunt at the meeting, in addition to the above were Police Constables Bob Drummond and Gareth Thomson.
Members of the Community Janey McCreath, Helen Morton and Anne Riddicks.
Apologies for absence: Andrew Guthrie, Jean McGinn.
Sympathy was expressed for the McGinn family.
Police Report:
Minor incidents: 1, Noise in property in Carrick Place
2. Missing Cattle from Lagg.
3. Sheep on road.
No serious crime had been reported but the police were keeping a watchful eye out in case there were any thefts of livestock, machinery and fuel oil.
There was a request that the police patrol car could back up the repeated village
requests to have the bushe
s protruding out over the lower section of Station Road pruned back by the council.
Councillors’ Report:
Owing to the recess over Easter there was nothing to report. Irene Howat would be acting CEO.
Matters arising:
Dorothy Ward asked whether MSPS might be invited to visit a meeting in the village to discuss issues related to referendum. Councillor Grant advised waiting until the white paper had been published.
Janey McCreath made a representation on behalf of Kennedy Hall & Park Committee concerning the parlous state of the village hall for which there were no funds to repair fabric. It was noted a section of the hall ceiling had collapsed. She expressed fears that the hall would have to be shut. An attempt to supplement income by allowing an ice-cream van into the park had been met with local business opposition. It was pointed out that previous competition hsd been provided in the village shop which was now closed. Councillor Grant said that the committee should hand their lease back to the council so that they would be responsible for the maintenance of the fabric. This was being attempted in the case of Maybole Town Hall.. Councillor Goldie doubted whether the council would be willing to accept this in the case of the village. DCC expressed concern and sympathy regarding lack of funding and threat of hall closure but could provide no financial help. The councillors would raise the matter with D Shannon, with whom Janey had been dealing, to get clarification. The matter was referred back to KHP for further discussion.
Representation was made on behalf of Angela Sturgeon, 17 Ayr Ropad, by her daughters, Helen Morton and Anne Riddicks concerning the large scale dumping of litter by temporary residents in the property adjoining lane. Huge amounts of rubbish had been thrown in the adjoining field and rats were becoming a problem. Councillor Goldie said that S A C would letter the owner with a request to remove and if this was not done the Council would attend to this and send owners a bill.
A second issue concerning the level of kerb on main road in front of property would be reported. It is flush with the road and surface water is draining into adjacent gardens.
Thanks were expressed to s A C for clearing up the large amounts of litter in the lay-by between Perryston and Genoch, but again expressed their concern regarding potholes at top of Lagg Brae and between the Brown Carrick Drive and Earls Way roundabouts on A719. Councillor Grant reiterated that the roads budger had been cut by a million pounds, and that the size of our budget much less than that of East Ayrshire. The Committee pointed out that when the authority was endeavouring to promote tourism, cutting the budget waqs counter productive.
Dorothy Ward again raised the matter of new village notice boards and the chairman repeated his willingness to erect them when they were provided.
She also expressed concern about the loss of the village shop. It was hoped Andrew Guthrie’s approach to Ailsa Horizons might prove fruitful, but that would be provisional on the shop owner’s willingness to make the property available.
With regard to the bin being blown downhill in the park this was not council responsibility. Dorothy agreed to contact tel. number on the bin to contact the firm responsible.
The Chairman welcomed Elaine McQuade to the Committee
Financial ~Report:
There were no changes from the previous month.
Admin Account ~£616.92
New Hall Account £845.42
