interesting facebook post!

Sep 25, 2022

one of the local councillors put an update on facebook that caught my eye..

"Burnt Bench back end of island: I’ve asked for this to be replaced and we will be getting a new metal wheelchair accessible table to replace this damaged one due September." "

So it looks like someone lit a disposable BBQ on the top of a wooden bench - despite it having a plaque asking people not to do just that.. Nice to know that that it going to be fixed up.

There are also plans for additional benches and tables around the island."

What!!!! More benches? But I've documented all the benches! You can't be adding new benches!!!

"Memorial Benches and Flood Defenses: The Tenders for the Millport Coastal Flood Protection Scheme are currently being evaluated and NAC will provide an update once that process has been completed. Streetscene have the details of plaque owners and will consult with those when the timing of the removals is known. This will be dependant upon the chosen Contractors scheduling of the works. No memorial plaques have been removed by NAC at this time."

So it does look like the flood defence scheme is a bit away from starting!
