Oakbank Community Inn Sandbank (OCIS)
The group is presently at Stage 2 of a two stage process to obtain financing from the
Scottish Land Fund for the purpose of acquiring the Oakbank hotel/pub as a
community facility.  Initial funding has been received for preparation of a valuation
survey, condition survey, feasibility study and business plan with work on the latter
ongoing at the moment.  OCIS envisions a genuine community asset in common
with many other similar projects which have taken place in the UK in recent years
and given the absence of any privately owned public bar or restaurant in Sandbank
at the moment, the group is very hopeful that the necessary funding will be made
available.
