Construction News Image
East Dunbartonshire Council is inviting residents to attend a drop-in event over plans to develop a new community facility in the region.

Representatives from the council and the architect will be at the meeting to discuss details of the proposed purpose-built development in Auchinairn.

The public is being asked what they would like to see in the new facility, with plans already in place to develop an Early Years service within the building.

In addition, the potential to build a new sports facility alongside the project is also being explored.

Council Leader Rhondda Geekie said: "The Council wants to create a modern, well-equipped facility that will benefit the whole community including the community groups and organisations running in Auchinairn.

"This initial stage gives an opportunity to share suggestions and ideas for the new space to be considered in the design process so we can create a facility that meets the needs of the community."

The event will take place on between 4pm – 7pm in Auchinairn Primary School on Thursday, 21 January.

A further meeting will take place at a later date where the architect's designs can be viewed and a more detailed discussion can take place.
