NOTICE OF MOTION UNDER STANDING ORDER 13 Dumbarton to Helensburgh – Bus Timetable A new bus timetable, recently introduced on the Dumbarton to Helensburgh route, leaves some Hermitage Academy pupils and parents, who live in Cardross, with a choice of leaving very early, meaning they have to hang around waiting for the school doors to open, or catching the next, later bus which is often delayed and means pupils miss registration or even the start of period one. Helensburgh and Lomond Area Committee, therefore, agrees that the Chair write to SPT and First Bus asking that the service bus timetable between Dumbarton and Helensburgh be adjusted in the morning to allow pupils travelling from Cardross by bus to get to Hermitage Academy in time for registration rather than arriving just in time for the first class. And to also seek the support of Council SPT representative Councillor Gordon Blair and Policy Lead - Roads, Transport and Amenity Services John Armour in seeking this alteration to the timetable.

MINUTES of MEETING of HELENSBURGH & LOMOND AREA COMMITTEE held HELENSBURGH AND LOMOND CIVIC CENTRE AND BY MICROSOFT TEAMS on TUESDAY, 9 SEPTEMBER 2025 Present: Councillor Fiona Howard (Chair) Councillor Maurice Corry Councillor Graham Hardie Councillor Ian James MacQuire Councillor Iain Shonny Paterson Councillor Gemma Penfold Attending: Stuart McLean, Committee Manager, Argyll and Bute Council Mark Calder, Project Manager Inspector Bart Simonis, Police Scotland Colin Young, Strategic Transportation Delivery Officer Suzanne Mason, Engagement and Communities Lead Antonia Baird, Community Development Officer Seymour Adams, Chair of Cultural, Heritage and Arts Assembly (CHARTS) 1. APOLOGIES FOR ABSENCE The Vice-Chair welcomed everyone to the meeting. Apologies for absence were intimated on behalf of Councillors Mark Irvine (Chair), Paul Donald Kennedy and Gary Mulvaney. 2. DECLARATIONS OF INTEREST There were no declarations of interest intimated. 3. MINUTE OF THE MEETING OF THE HELENSBURGH AND LOMOND AREA COMMITTEE, HELD ON 10 JUNE 2025 The Minute of the meeting of the Helensburgh and Lomond Area Committee, held on 10 June 2025, was approved as a correct record. 4. PUBLIC QUESTION TIME The Vice-Chair noted that several questions had been submitted by members of the public in advance of the meeting. The Vice-Chair then invited any other members of the public in attendance to submit any questions they may have. Dr Peter Brown Having noted that Dr Peter Brown was not in attendance the Committee Manager read out the questions submitted by him in advance of the meeting as follows: Question 1 At the Area Committee meeting in June, Councillors deferred holding a public meeting about the Leisure Centre closure and repair work until tenders had been awarded. That has now been done - when will the Councillors be willing to attend a public meeting to address the community about the Leisure Centre situation? Public Document PackPage 5 Agenda Item 3
Page 6
Question 2 Since the Area Committee meeting in June, there have been 3 updates to the Council's webpage informing the community about progress on the Leisure Centre works. That is 3 updates in 3 months. The last two updates promised scaffolding would be in place by now, and it's not. At the Area Committee meeting in March, Councillor Corry called for regular progress updates, like the weekly updates that were provided when the building was being constructed. Why are the community still not being provided with regular updates? The Committee Manager advised that on receipt of these questions he had passed them to the Project Lead for Helensburgh Leisure Centre Repairs, Andrew Collins, who had asked that he deliver the following update: Officers are aware of the request from Helensburgh Community Council and agree with the consensus view from Councillors at the June Area Committee which was summarised by the Chair Cllr Irvine that a ‘public meeting at this time would not be appropriate.’ That remains the position as not all contracts have been awarded at this stage, notable the internal fit out. All information that can be shared is contained within the regular updates on the website. Our focus remains on returning the leisure centre to use for everyone as soon as possible. We continue to share updates with communities across social media and have a dedicated web page with updates images as work progresses. The last update was provided 2 weeks ago. Updates are issued monthly and are designed to tie in with Community Council meetings. The next update will be at the end of this month. Hub North Scotland are playing a key role in the project by providing project management and working collaboratively with developers, builders, and their supply chain partners. The Council’s contractor Galiford Try has now taken possession of the site and is establishing the compound site and scaffolding. Site cabins were erected last week and works are ongoing this week. There has been a slight delay in completing the necessary design for the scaffolding due to the complexity between the scaffolding and the existing structure. Works to erect the scaffolding are now due to start next week on 15 September for a period of four weeks. Works on the roof will be ongoing throughout the Autumn. We have every sympathy for everyone affected by the consequences of Storm Eowyn. Our focus in on returning the pool and leisure centre to use as soon as possible, and we have provided an idea of the range of actions needed for this on our website. At this stage we forecast the building to re-open by the end of March 2026. We will continue to share updates on both our website and across social media. Councillor Corry supported the statement by the Project Lead for Helensburgh Leisure Centre Repairs and confirmed that the council is doing all it can to get contractors on site to begin the required work. Question 3 This question is for the three Helensburgh and Lomond Councillors who are on the Environment, Development and Infrastructure (EDI) Committee. At the EDI meeting this Thursday, there is a proposal from officers to change the policy on 2nd domestic bin Page 6
Page 7
collections. Are Councillors aware that the officers' report misrepresented the consultation results from the 821 residents who responded to the public consultation? In the question which asked "Do you think the criteria below for providing an additional general wate bin, free of charge, are correct? Households of 5+ people", the summary of results said "A significant majority of respondents (69%) support the current policy of households with over 5 residents can access a second green bin free of charge". This is a significant difference - the officers have incorrectly said "over 5" but the current policy, and the survey question was about "5 and over". The officers are now proposing that second bins are provided for households with "6 and over" inhabitants. Are Councillors aware of this misrepresentation of the result of the public consultation? In response Mark Calder, Project Manager, advised that he would take this back to the Department for consideration. Councillor Hardie advised he will raise this question with Councillor John Armour, Policy Lead for Roads, Transport and Amenity Services. Lizzie Donaldson, Chair of Parents for Active Learning, Hermitage Primary School Question 1 Why does the Council think that the Annex is land it can give away out of purposes for Education when it is sitting on the footprint of the school, within school wall boundaries, which is land gifted by the original Cramb family for the purposes of education? Question 2 What guidelines does Aryll and Bute Council use for declaring the legal size a playground should be, based on school roll numbers? The Committee Manager advised that on receipt of these questions he had passed them to colleagues in Education and Commercial Services who had asked that he provide the following response: Both Officers from Education and Commercial Services have kept in contact with the Parents for Active Learners (PAL) Group and note the formation of the new Trust. Officers are in the early stages of looking at the old annexe site for possible housing. There are a number of issues to address before determining its suitability. If this is not possible, alternative uses such as an outdoor play area may come back for consideration. Outdoor play and learning are important parts of school life. Hermitage Primary has a number of options available to them for outdoor play including their own existing outdoor space, the sports pitch at Parklands and Hermitage Park. In Scotland the size of school grounds is governed by the School Premises (General Requirements and Standards) Regulations 1967 (as amended) Councillor Corry responded that he had been approached by a number of constituents who had raised concerns over the proximity of the proposed housing to the playground and that the health and wellbeing of the children should be the primary focus. Councillor Corry added that he would prefer that the site be identified for a purpose other than housing and that he would support an extended playground. Page 7
Page 8
Councillor Howard advised that she had signed the associated petition and agreed with Councillor Corry, adding that she would be more than happy to work with him on this matter. Councillor MacQuire also agreed with Councillor Corry and that it would be beneficial to explore what provisions are made at other schools and that the playground at the school should reflect the current and future school rolls. Councillor Penfold said that she supported the Councillors statements and that the area should not be used for housing but for the school. Elizabeth Lambert, Helensburgh Community Council – Town Improvement Group Question 1 When will the broken benches in Colquhoun Square be repaired? I first reported the one by the flower beds in February and again in March and August. Since February another three have been broken and added to my reporting but none have been fixed. It doesn’t help that there is no method of reporting broken benches on the report it tool, so I’ve no idea if the emails are being registered or actioned. The benches will cost a lot to replace so repair is still the most cost-effective action. Please can I get an update on when they will be repaired? Question 2 If replacement benches are being considered can Helensburgh Community Council be consulted on the design and materials of replacement benches, to avoid the errors made in selecting the ones in Colquhoun Square? The Project Manager, Mark Calder, agreed that it is not helpful that this issue cannot be reported via the website and apologised that Miss Lambert had not received a response to her submission and will investigate this with the local team. Mr Calder advised that the benches are sourced from non-standard material and as such when there are faults it can be difficult to identify replacement parts and would arrange to meet with Miss Lambert to scope potential improvements. Question 3 It is not helpful that updates regarding the Helensburgh Leisure Centre are received the day after the Helensburgh Community Council meetings, can this be changed? Councillor Howard advised that it was her understanding that the Community Council did receive the updates prior to their meetings and that she herself had forwarded them. Councillor Howard added that she would refer this matter to officers. Lynsey Young Question 1 The community welcomes the recent progress made on the Helensburgh, Cardross and Dumbarton Cyclepath project, specifically that the required ecology studies have begun. Page 8
Page 9
Can you please confirm that the Council has received the promised external resource from Transport Scotland? Question 2 With regards to maintenance, has the Councils Biodiversity Officer or Nature Scot been consulted about maintaining the areas around the cycle paths, once completed, to ensure they remain nature friendly? The Strategic Transportation Delivery Officer, Colin Young, confirmed that funding had not yet been received, and that the resource, at this time, was being picked up by the Council. Mr Young added that no consideration had been given to the planting scheme and that this would be addressed at a future date. Mrs Vivienne Dance Question 1 With regards to Hermitage Primary School, would it be possible to have a timeline and a list of decisions that led to the decision that the Annex be identified for housing? Question 2 Businesses within Helensburgh are investing heavily in improving their premises. Approval to demolish the eyesore at 6-9 East Clyde Street, Helensburgh was approved in 2024, why has this not been undertaken? Question 3 Resource was awarded to secure the conservation status of Helensburgh. Can the Area Committee confirm what the money has been used for? Question 4 The Council are considering changing the fee structure for Temporary Traffic Regulation Orders, which will negatively impact on the Christmas Light Switch On event in Helensburgh. Would the Area Committee revisit this decision? Question 5 Can the Area Committee confirm that the Helensburgh Leisure Centre reopening date of March 2026 remains the target? Question 6 When will the Tourist Tax be determined, as the delay is causing significant concern? Councillor Howard confirmed that the Argyll and Bute Council Visitor Levy Consultation report was available on the Council website. Councillor Corry said that he was under the impression that there was no charge to charities for road closures and that he would investigate the matter. Mark Calder said he Page 9
Page 10
would also speak with Mrs Dance regarding road closures and what arrangements were required for over the Christmas period. Member of the Public Having moved to the area in 2022 I would like to see more autonomy for Helensburgh and Lomond. The Committee Manager confirmed that the council area is divided into four administrative areas, Bute and Cowal; Helensburgh and Lomond; Mid Argyll, Kintyre and the Islands; Oban, Lorn and the Isles and that he would be happy to share the scheme of delegation with the member of the public. Cameron Foy, Destination Helensburgh There is a lack of general maintenance in Colquhoun Square with regards to bins, drains, gardens and benches. Mark Calder advised he was aware of a number of defects at this locality and is scoping funding opportunities to set right some of the issues identified by Mr Foy. Angela Anderson, Plastic Free Helensburgh Question 1 A sewer which had burst close to the Henry Bell monument has now been fixed, but the surrounding granite was not. Sewers and drains are a continual problem in the town with gravel washing into them. What can be done to resolve this issue? Councillor McQuire advised that the identified drains were scheduled to be cleaned next week. Member of the Public Question 1 What can be done about the public toilets at Helensburgh pierhead? The payment machines are not working properly. They are taking payment but not allowing access. Mark Calder advised that the payment system used has had problems at various locations and that in such circumstances the doors should have been set to ‘free’ to allow access. Mr Calder added that a contractor is working towards resolving this issue and that provision of public toilets is not a statutory obligation and costs the Council a significant amount each year. Councillor Hardie said they are not set to ‘free’ and have been taking money but the doors are not opening. Page 10

ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL Helensburgh and Lomond Area Committee DEVELOPMENT AND ECONOMIC GROWTH 09 December 2025 Helensburgh, Cardross and Dumbarton Cyclepath Progress Report 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1. This report updates Members on the progress made since the previous report to this Committee on 09 September 2025 in relation to the delivery of a high-quality walking and cycle route linking Helensburgh, Cardross and Dumbarton. 1.2. Surveys: initial topographical and ecological surveys have been completed. Winter birds surveys necessary due to the proximity of the project to the Inner Clyde SSSI are ongoing and are forecast to be completed by spring 2026. 1.3. Phase 1: The design consultants, Connected Transport Planning (CTP), are undertaking a deliverability review re-considering both the route adjacent to the inland side of the railway line and a route adjacent to the A814 road. This deliverability review considers a range of relevant factors including construction works, drainage, land take, maintainability, landowner support and ecology. The team are working towards concluding the deliverability review of Phase 1 route options this calendar year. At time of writing, the review indicates that a route following the southern (seaward) side of the A814 would be more deliverable compared to a route following the inland side of the railway as well as offering additional benefits for future maintainability and personal safety perspectives. Therefore, at the time of writing the emerging preferred route for phase 1 is adjacent to the A814. 1.4. As part of the deliverability review of Phase 1, Officers and consultancy staff working collaboratively have continued to meet with landowners to seek their support for a single route. All landowners have provisionally stated support for a route following the A814 subject to localized design considerations. It is expected that having landowner support for a single route will enable faster development and delivery of the route and is a consideration in the route deliverability review process. 1.5. Phase 2: Following the deliverability review of the section of the route linking Cardross and Dumbarton, some amendments have been made to the concept design. The most significant amendment identified is to improve the design for the Ferry Road/Craigend Road/A814 junction. Realignment of Craigend Road improves the sightlines and access for the farms located on the private Craigend Road and has enabled the design for the junction of Ferry Road/A814 to be revised, with an updated design for a signalised pedestrian crossing in lieu of the previously promoted signalised junction. This updated design for Ferry Page 15 Agenda Item 5
Page 16
Road/A814 is forecast to be fully accommodated within the road corridor, therefore there is no requirement for any space from residential gardens. The design reduces the visual impact compared to the previous proposal to fully signalise the junction of Ferry Road/Craigend Road/A814. The changes are also forecast to improve visibility for drivers exiting from Ferry Road. 1.6. Landowners on the Phase 2 section linking Cardross and Dumbarton have agreed in principle to an outline design. The consultant’s civil engineering team are now detailing the outline design up to developed design stage, suitable for future public engagement planned for spring/summer 2026. 1.7. The engineering team are working to define the ground investigation surveys required to enable the full engineering design, and will be engaging with relevant landowners to seek their agreement to undertake these surveys in the coming weeks. It is anticipated that surveys could be completed early in the new year, subject to securing landowner agreement. 1.8. Phase 3: Officers are working to tender for a new design team to progress the designs for Phase 3 linking Helensburgh Waterfront to Morrison’s Supermarket from the current concept stage through developed and technical stages, subject to securing funding in future financial years. 1.9. Funding: Officers have continued engagement with colleagues in Transport Scotland and now expect to receive a funding offer for 25/26 in early December. Transport Scotland have confirmed that this funding offer can be backdated to cover costs incurred across the full financial year 25/26. Transport Scotland has also commenced the funding application process for 26/27, as active travel funding is only awarded for a single financial year at a time. RECOMMENDATIONS 1.10. It is recommended that the Helensburgh and Lomond members: 1.10.1.Welcome the continued positive engagement of landowners. 1.10.2.Support the updated layout for the junction of A814 / Ferry Road / Craigend Road. 1.10.3.Instruct Officers to progress the Phase 1 route on basis of the one which is identified as the most deliverable following conclusion of the deliverability review. 1.10.4.Support efforts of Officers, subject to receiving suitable tender returns, to seek to appoint a design team to complete development of Phase 3 designs through Developed Design and Technical Design stages.

Page 18
4.3. Landowner investigation for Phase 1 (Moss Road, Colgrain to Cardross) has identified the land is held by 5 landowners. Phase 2 (Ferry Road, Cardross to Dumbarton) has a total of 6 landowners identified. 4.4. Phase 1: Officers and staff from the design consultants have continued to meet with landowners on Phase 1 of the route between Cardross and Helensburgh individually and as a group to seek landowner support for a single, deliverable route. All landowners have provisionally stated support for a route following the A814, subject to localized design considerations. It is expected that having landowner support for a single route will enable faster development and delivery of the route and is a consideration in the route deliverability review process. 4.5. Phase 2: Following some amendments to the concept design, landowners on the Phase 2 section linking Cardross and Dumbarton have agreed in principle to the outline design. 4.6. It is planned to continue dialogue with landowners as designs are developed to capture landowner views within the design development process. Design Phase 1 Colgrain to Cardross 4.7. Following securing the agreement of landowners, the initial non-invasive ecology and topographical surveys have been completed. Winter birds surveys are programmed to continue until spring 2026. 4.8. As a number of changes have occurred since the current preferred route alignment was selected in 2019, a deliverability review re-considering the route adjacent to the inland side of the railway line and a route adjacent to the A814 road is being undertaken by the design consultants, Connected Transport Planning (CTP). The purpose of this review is to identify the most deliverable alignment, considering a range of relevant factors including construction works, drainage, land take, maintainability, landowner support and ecology. The team are working towards concluding the deliverability review of Phase 1 route options this calendar year. At time of writing, the review indicates that a route following the southern (seaward) side of the A814 would be more deliverable compared to a route following the inland side of the railway. Both routes are forecast to provide a similar level of end-user benefits with the road route offering additional advantages in terms of natural surveillance and user safety. Therefore, at the time of writing the emerging preferred route for phase 1 is adjacent to the A814. 4.9. As part of the deliverability review of Phase 1, Officers and consultancy staff working collaboratively have continued to meet with landowners to seek their support for a single route. All landowners have provisionally stated support for a route following the A814. It is expected that having full landowner support for a single route will ultimately enable faster development and delivery of the route by avoiding compulsory purchase. Landowner support is therefore a consideration in the route deliverability review process. Page 18
Page 19
4.10. Following conclusion of the deliverability review, and any decision required on route alignment to be developed, to continue to make progress with this project; it is proposed that the consultant’s civil engineering team should progress to developing designs for the route identified as the most deliverable up to developed design stage, suitable for future public engagement in spring/summer 2026. 4.11. The engineering team should also define the ground investigation surveys required to enable the full engineering design and commence engagement with relevant landowners to seek their agreement to undertake these surveys early in 2026. Phase 2 Cardross to Dumbarton 4.12. Following securing the agreement of landowners, the initial non-invasive ecology and topographical surveys have been completed. Winter birds surveys are programmed to continue until spring 2026. 4.13. The Ferry Road/Craigend Road/A814 junction design has been recast to realign Craigend Road thereby improving the sightlines and access for the farms located on the private Craigend Road. This has enabled the design for the junction of Ferry Road/A814 to be revised with an updated design for a signalised pedestrian crossing. This updated design can be fully accommodated within the road corridor, therefore there is no requirement for any space from private gardens, and reduces the visual impact compared to the previous proposal to fully signalise the junction of Ferry Road/Craigend Road/A814 while improving sightlines for drivers existing Ferry Road. The concept general arrangement drawing for the revised design is included as Appendix 2. 4.14. The consultant’s civil engineering team are now detailing the outline designs up to developed design stage, suitable for future public engagement in spring/summer 2026. 4.15. The engineering team are also working to define the ground investigation surveys required to enable the full engineering design and will be engaging with relevant landowners to seek their agreement to undertake these surveys in the coming weeks. It is anticipated that phase 2 ground investigation surveys could be completed early in the new year, subject to securing landowner agreement. Phase 3 Helensburgh Town 4.16. Officers are working to tender for a new design team to progress the designs for Phase 3 from the current concept stage through developed and technical stages, subject to securing funding in future financial years. Land Acquisition 4.17. Previous discussions with landowners have confirmed they wish to provide the least land practical to deliver the path. As such, progression of land acquisition requires designs to be further developed to firmly identify the necessary land. Page 19
Page 20
Once the design process has been completed, the Council’s Estates Team will require to engage with landowners in a timely manner to progress land acquisition. Construction Cardross Rail Station to Geilston Burn 4.18. Cardross Rail Station to Geilston Burn. The Council’s Roads and Infrastructure Service have completed most elements of the cyclepath through Cardross Park, with only a small amount of fencing still to be installed. It is expected that the costs for the remaining fencing work will require to be covered from a yet to be identified internal Council budget. 4.19. To protect the public, the bridge over the Geilston Burn will remain fenced off until access is agreed to land on the west side of the Burn to construct the path through to an accessible destination. Maintenance 4.20. It is a requirement of the external funders that a written maintenance plan including confirmation of how this will be funded and delivered is developed as part of the design process. At present, the Council does not receive any funding for the maintenance of cyclepaths and none of the current external funding sources secured through competitive bidding for active travel include maintenance as an eligible cost. This anomaly has been repeatedly raised by Officers with Transport Scotland Officials and it is recognised to be inconsistent with the Scottish Government’s commitments regarding capital funding for active travel projects. 4.21. The Roads and Infrastructure Service are the single service within the Council which includes infrastructure maintenance teams appropriately trained and qualified to undertake maintenance of cyclepaths. The Traffic and Development Officer for Helensburgh and Lomond is a member of the officer project group for the cyclepath and is providing input from Roads and Infrastructure Service on the designs to ensure these meet Roads and Infrastructure Service requirements for adoption. Programme 4.22. Appendix 1 provides the current programme of the key stages and forecast timescales for each section of the Phase 1: Helensburgh to Cardross section of the Cyclepath; Phase 2: Cardross to Dumbarton; and, Phase 3: Helensburgh: Hermitage Academy to Town Centre. Risk 4.23. Risk refers to events which have not yet happened but which could impact on the project if they were to happen. A risk can be negative or positive to the project. Risks are identified through the lifetime of the project and, where possible, mitigation is planned to minimise negative impacts or maximise positive impacts. Page 20
Page 21
As risks evolve relatively slowly through the lifetime of a project, it is not expect that the tables below will alter significantly within the current stage of work. 4.24. Project risks relate to risks which could affect the overall project. Table 1 provides the top 5 identified project risks and planned mitigation. Table: Selected Project Risks Risk Risk Description Risk Impact Mitigation Land access Inability to secure agreement for temporary access to land required to undertake surveys. High 1. Positively engage with landowners to seek voluntary access agreements. 2. Consideration of Council’s statutory powers if necessary.

Community support Loss of community support for the project. Low 1. Consult community on key design decisions at appropriate time. 2. Seek to deliver project which meets community’s key requirements. 3. Keep community informed via project updates at appropriate times, including area committee reports. 4.25. Design risk refers to risk that the design fail to meet the required standards and/or design conditions imposed by external factors, for example environmental requirements. Design risks, if allowed to occur, can become issues which may mean the project design has to be changed, which can cause delays and cost increases. Defects or failures in the design can also result in an increase in future maintenance costs. Table 1 provides the top 5 identified design risks and planned mitigation.

Completion of the Helensburgh, Cardross and Dumbarton Cyclepath will provide a dedicated, high quality, accessible walking and cycle route linking Helensburgh, Cardross and Dumbarton. This route will provide opportunities for all in the Helensburgh – Cardross – Dumbarton corridor to travel more sustainably and actively by walking and cycling. This will provide a safe alternative to having to use a private car to travel between these communities and help lower Argyll and Bute’s carbon footprint. Funding for these works has been secured from our key active travel partners with further bids being developed to enable the design and construction of further sections of the cycleway as and when land acquisition has been concluded. 5.2. The delivery of the Helensburgh, Cardross and Dumbarton Cyclepath is dependent on completing the design work, securing highly competitive external challenge funding, committing appropriate match funding and securing access to private land for the route.

6.0 IMPLICATIONS 6.1. Policy Completion of this project will support the Council’s Outcomes Improvement Plan outcomes 1: Transport Infrastructure and 3: Community Wellbeing. The project also supports achievement of the Scottish Government’s objectives set out in the Cycling Action Plan for Scotland (CAPS) and Let’s Get Scotland Walking - The National Walking Strategy. 6.2. Financial The design, construction and land purchase will be funded by external competitive funding applications. External funding is not currently available to cover maintenance costs. To date, the Council has not contributed any funding to design or capital costs. There is strong evidence that people who are more active, for example by walking or cycling, have been physical and mental health and are less likely to require social care services in later life which could result in a future saving to the Council or HSCP. 6.3. Legal Continued input will be required from Legal Services to support contractual agreements and land purchase. 6.4. HR None. 6.5. Customer Service None. 6.6. Risk There is a reputational risk to the Council if the project is not completed within a reasonable timeframe. 6.7. Climate Change Active Travel is the least carbon intensive mode of travel. Providing the opportunity for residents and visitors to consider an alternative to having to use a private car to travel between these communities will help lower Argyll and Bute’s carbon footprint. 6.8. Fairer Scotland Duty The route, once completed, will offer residents and visitors the opportunity to choose to travel actively, which is lower cost than alternative modes of transport. The route will also improve access to essential services, retail, leisure and employment opportunities for residents living along the route, thereby increasing opportunities to reduce socio-economic disadvantage. 6.9. Equalities Completion of this project will provide opportunities for all in the Helensburgh – Cardross – Dumbarton corridor to travel more sustainably and actively by walking, wheeling and cycling. The route has been designed to be DDA compliant and will provide a safe and accessible route for those with Page 23
Page 24
mobility aids including wheelchairs and parents/guardians with a child’s pram or buggy. 6.10. Socio-economic Duty The route, once completed, will offer residents the opportunity to choose to travel using active travel, which are lower cost than alternative modes of transport. The route will also improve access to essential services, retail, leisure and employment opportunities for residents living along the route, with studies demonstrating those who travelled actively had a higher monthly spend in local businesses than those who travel via motorised transport. The path will also offer opportunities for individuals to travel for leisure, again encouraging spend in local businesses along and connected by the route. 6.11. Islands Communities There are no adverse impacts. 6.12. The Rights of the Child (UNCRC) Active travel is the most accessible mode of travel to young people, as it does not have any minimum age limits, does not require any form of licence, is free to use and is not tied to any fixed timetable. All new active travel infrastructure is designed to be utilised by an unaccompanied 12 year old. Engagement feedback demonstrates even stronger support for the delivery of the Helensburgh – Cardross – Dumbarton Cyclepath from younger members of the community than the already high overall level of community support. Wider engagement with school pupils indicates that the vast majority of pupils strongly support the provision of new active travel infrastructure, even where it would adversely impact other modes of transport.

OFFICIAL: POLICE AND PARTNERS Argyll & West Dunbartonshire Division Helensburgh and Lomond Area Committee December 2025 The priorities for your area are decided by data from our strategic assessment which details threats and risks, and also from feedback from local authorities, partners, and residents in the Local Policing Survey. The current priorities are: • Serious and organised crime • Crimes of theft and dishonesty (acquisitive crime) • Road safety and road crime • ASB & Violent crime • Public protection. Acquisitive Crime Acquisitive crime remains a local priority especially as we move towards the winter months where community members can feel more vulnerable during the darker evenings. Our preventions team continue to look for ways to raise the importance of crime prevention within in the community. Small steps and a review of personal routines can help reduce the likelihood of becoming the victim of opportunistic crime. During the reporting period we seen a rise in common thefts from farms and other agricultural places. We continue to look for innovative ways to highlight crime prevention opportunities within this sector. A farm watch started in Helensburgh and Lomond area connecting many of the local farmers who are now able to interact in the same way as a neighbourhood watch scheme. Our preventions team have been visiting our agricultural sites offering advice about securing equipment and handing out specialist DNA marking kits. Digital evidence sharing capability, which revolutionises the way we collect and process digital evidence throughout the criminal justice system, is now live in Argyll. Digital Evidence Sharing Capability (DESC) is a programme designed to deliver an end to end service which will collect, manage and share digital evidence throughout the criminal justice process.

OFFICIAL: POLICE AND PARTNERS DESC will allow members of the public/businesses to quickly and easily submit digital evidence online (via portal). Road Safety Our traffic detections continue to increase which is testament to the proactive work by our specialist officers and our local policing teams. We continue to target those drivers putting people’s safety at risk as a result of their poor driving standards, decision making or condition of the vehicles being driven on the roads. The circumstances of any fatal road crash are investigated thoroughly by national specialist crash investigation teams. The expertise and understanding of road traffic legislation is shared locally to our local officers to ensure we are upskilling our own officers patrolling our communities. We continue to develop our Road Safety Partnership meetings, which involves stakeholders from the Local Authority, Roads, Transport Scotland and others. We now review all fatal crash scenes to ensure that any contributory factors are assessed and reviewed to reduce the risk of further accidents at the same location. During this reporting period we commenced our Fatal 5 - Young Drivers Campaign. The feedback received from pupils has been very encouraging. We have engaged senior pupils in Rothesay, Dunoon, Helensburgh, Campbeltown, Lochgilphead, Oban, Tobermory & Tarbert. The young driver presentations to S6 pupils consists of a case study involving 4 newly qualified drivers who were racing on a rural road resulting in a double fatality acc. These sessions create open discussions which the generation of young persons who have just reached driving age. These sessions allow us to positively influence decision making and to focus awareness on the fatal 5 campaign which include, driving whilst unfit to do so, speeding, not wearing seat belts and distraction. ASB/Violence All operational officers are briefed daily prior to deployment to furnish them with the intelligence and information required to be able to identify those involved in violence and ASB. We are committed to supporting our nighttime economy. Since 1st April our local policing teams have recorded over 200 visits to licenced premises. Our Divisional Licensing Team provides guidance and support to Local Policing in relation to the sale and supply of alcohol within our communities, ensuring licensed premises operate in accordance with liquor licensing legislation and promote responsible trading aligned with the Licensing Objectives. We have a range of options to assist us with any identified issues. These options form a Page 32

We have been engaging with Crimestoppers Scotland to see how we can promote their vital role within our rural communities. It is vital that we continue to encourage and empower our communities to speak up about crime within their villages and towns. Crimestoppers is a unique anonymous service and more than ever our communities need Crimestoppers unique guarantee of anonymity to report concerns. Serious and Organised crime often harms the most vulnerable in our communities, from drug dealing to exploitation via County Lines. It is vital that our we encourage people to report anonymously and help them on what to do; from spotting the key signs of crimes to being an active bystander Public Protection We continue to support individuals through a victim centred approach. Our officers receive regular training and guidance to ensure that we are supporting those affected with a professionalism and empathy. Public protection is often complex. Policing on its own is not the solution. By working in partnership, taking a multi-agency approach, increasing public confidence and raising public awareness, we are better placed to identify threat, manage risk and prevent harm A scheme launched ten years ago by Police Scotland has seen over 19,500 disclosures made to people about their partner's abusive past. The Disclosure Scheme for Domestic Abuse Scotland (DSDAS) was launched on 1 October 2015 following a successful trial in Ayrshire and Aberdeen city, and since then has received over 35,500 requests to ask about the background of a partner. DSDAS is an important preventative tool in tackling domestic abuse. Of the 35,847 requests received, 19,867 disclosures (55 per cent) have been made to tell individuals their partner has a violent or abusive past. Before the DSDAS scheme, there was no formal way of an individual finding out if their partner had a previous history of abusive behaviour. And similarly, there was no mechanism for police to proactively tell individuals if their partner posed a risk to them. The introduction of DSDAS has made significant changes and improvements to the violence against women landscape. It gives people the right to ask and police the right to tell individuals at risk of domestic abuse about the history of their partner. They can then make an informed decision about their relationship. Page 33

We have seen a decline in the number of properties claiming empty property relief, and the empty business property grant scheme, plus the extended property relief have both proven useful in supporting owners or incoming tenants. The support is warmly welcomed by the private sector, as the trading environment is challenging, so the financial support to help de-risk business start-up, expansion and alternative usage is proving a positive intervention.

Although the measure against baseline is positive, this % does represent a slightly higher figure (0.5%) versus historic analysis. The suite of empty business property policy changes implemented by the council are positive and the market is responding to the new extended property relief and the business grant scheme. The role of town centres is multi-faceted so they are impacted by many externalities. These can be an acute in rural economies already facing challenges with depopulation, declining workforce, accessibility and macro-economic factors. Ongoing work is required to diagnose the issues currently affecting each of our town centres, and provide a framework of approaches/interventions to support their revival. 17 Page 55

Recycling and composting slighter higher than previous quarter mainly due to increased levels of green garden waste sent for composting. Actual trend line 52.5% recycling,composting and recovery (42.5% recycling and composting plus 10.0% recovery). Recycling and composting are slighter higher than previous quarter mainly due to the increased levels of green garden waste sent for composting . This indicator for FQ2 shows the percentage of waste recycled has remained the same since the last reporting period. 24 Page 62

PPP area landfill is up from the previous few quarters due to commencement by Biffa (formerly Renewi) of the conversion of mechanical biological treatment (MBT) plants to Waste Transfer Stations (WTS) at the 3 main sites. Once works are complete, this will provide the capability for the residual general waste to be transferred from 1st January to the central belt for refuse derived fuel (RDF/energy from waste (EfW) to ensure landfill ban compliance.

ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL HELENSBURGH AND LOMOND AREA COMMITTEE ROADS AND INFRASTRUCTURE 9 SEPTEMBER 2025 SERVICES ROADS AND INFRASTRUCTURE SERVICES UPDATE 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 A Roads and Infrastructure standing report was a fixture on Area Committee agendas throughout the life of the last Council. In the first two rounds of Area Committee meetings in the new Council feedback was sought on the value of these updates, and their format and frequency. Generally Members felt having a standard item was beneficial and it was acknowledged that the Roads and Infrastructure weekly briefings issued to all members each Friday afternoon provide for the main sources of live information on current activities. On top of these briefings there is a bank of resources on the new Member Zone system which include the weekly briefings, subject specific briefings, ad hoc short briefings on issues, relevant previous committee reports, operational service procedures, legislation and Council policies. 1.2 In the last Council the purpose of these reports was to provide an update on service activities but since weekly briefings these have largely superseded the original stated purpose of these reports. 1.3 On the basis of the above this new format has been agreed through the December 2022 round of area committees for this standing item. This format removes duplication for Officers and rather links to existing published information, with additional updates only in the body of the reports if these are specifically requested/noted from previous meetings. The report remains as a standing item and continues to provide the opportunity for Officer engagement at the committee meetings. 2.0 RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that the Area Committee: 2.1 Note and consider the contents of this report. 3.0 DETAIL 3.1 Roads and Infrastructure Services provides Members with weekly briefings on topical service activities which are all available here.

ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL HELESBURGH AND LOMOND AREA COMMITTEE ROADS AND INFRASTRUCTURE 9 DECEMBER 2025 Colquhoun Square – CHORD Legacy Fund: Principles for Reinvestment 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 This report sets out a high-level framework for the potential reinvestment of remaining CHORD legacy funds associated with the 2015 Helensburgh public realm improvements. A balance of approximately £57,000 remains unallocated and presents an opportunity to deliver enhancements that support the usability, quality and civic function of Colquhoun Square. This report seeks agreement on the core principles that should guide future spend, and proposes that officers undertake targeted engagement with local stakeholders to inform a costed delivery plan. RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that the Area Committee: i. Note the remaining balance of circa £57,000 from the original CHORD programme; ii. Agree that future spend should focus on enhancing the usability, amenity and presentation of Colquhoun Square as a civic and public event space; iii. Endorse the principle that replacement or rationalisation of street furniture — particularly benches — should form part of this reinvestment; and iv. Request that officers undertake stakeholder engagement (including with community organisations, event organisers and local businesses) and return to Committee with a detailed reinvestment proposal.

ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL HELESBURGH AND LOMOND AREA COMMITTEE ROADS AND INFRASTRUCTURE 9 DECEMBER 2025 Colquhoun Square – CHORD Legacy Fund: Principles for Reinvestment 2.0 INTRODUCTION 2.1 This report sets out a high-level framework for the potential reinvestment of remaining CHORD legacy funds associated with the 2015 Helensburgh public realm improvements. A balance of approximately £57,000 remains unallocated and presents an opportunity to deliver enhancements that support the usability, quality and civic function of Colquhoun Square. 3.0 RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that the Area Committee: i. Note the remaining balance of circa £57,000 from the original CHORD programme; ii. Agree that future spend should focus on enhancing the usability, amenity and presentation of Colquhoun Square as a civic and public event space; iii. Endorse the principle that replacement or rationalisation of street furniture — particularly benches — should form part of this reinvestment; and iv. Request that officers undertake stakeholder engagement (including with community organisations, event organisers and local businesses) and return to Committee with a detailed reinvestment proposal. 4.0 DETAIL 4.1 BACKGROUND The Helensburgh CHORD project, completed in 2015, delivered a transformative multi million investment in Colquhoun Square and the surrounding town centre streetscape. The project included new paving, lighting, planting, and extensive street furniture, including over 40 benches. While the physical space remains a defining feature of the town centre, there are now increasing signs of wear, overprovision in some elements (e.g. benches), Page 74
Page 75
and a lack of integration between different public realm initiatives delivered since 2015. A remaining balance of approximately £57,000 is held within Roads and Infrastructure Services, having been transferred from CHORD legacy allocations. The purpose of this paper is to set the direction for how these funds could be used to refresh and improve the core civic space in a strategic and coordinated manner. 4.2 PRINCIPLES FOR FUTURE SPEND It is proposed that any reinvestment of the remaining funds be guided by the following principles: • Improve Usability and Function: Enhance the day-to-day use and flexibility of the square, particularly in relation to events, public gatherings, and informal leisure. • Reduce Visual Clutter: Review the existing volume and distribution of furniture, with a view to rationalising and updating where appropriate (e.g. benches, bins). • Target High-Impact, Low-Maintenance Improvements: Focus on upgrades that enhance appearance, reduce ongoing maintenance, and support accessibility and comfort. • Engage Locally: Seek views from community councils, events groups, and local partners to shape the detail of proposed improvements. 4.3 NEXT STEPS Officers will begin developing a reinvestment proposal based on the above principles, incorporating input from local stakeholders. This may include: - A phased programme of bench removal and replacement (with options for more durable and consistent styles); - New seating or picnic furniture to encourage more active use of space; - Improved waste infrastructure and visual refreshes where appropriate; - Complementary surface or planting works subject to available budget. A full proposal will be presented to Members at a future Committee. 5.0 CONCLUSION 5.1 This report provides a starting point for a considered and meaningful reinvestment of remaining CHORD legacy funds in Colquhoun Square. Through a focus on usability, visual coherence, and civic function, and with input from local stakeholders, the Council can ensure that this funding delivers long- term benefit in keeping with the scale and ambition of the original CHORD investment. 6.0 IMPLICATIONS 6.1 Policy – Supports town centre regeneration and public realm enhancement. 6.2 Financial – Utilises remaining legacy funds with no new allocation required.

Electric Vehicle Charging Strategy MEMBER SEMINAR 20TH OCTOBER 2025 This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY-SA-NC This Photo by Unknown Author is licensed under CC BY Page 81 Agenda Item 10
Page 82
Background 2022 – Strategy approved: aim to fill geographic gaps and achieve equitable coverage. 2023–24 – Expansion plan and methodology developed – 55 sites identified 2024 – Committee reaffirmed direction while awaiting EVIF funding. Page 82
Page 83
Current expansion plan In 2022 the Council approved an EV Charging Strategy based on two delivery themes: Charging on the Move – ensuring drivers can travel through Argyll confidently. Destination Charging – providing chargers where people dwell. That approach assumed further funding would follow Page 83
Page 84
Funding secured We now have £1.033million secured for the next phase – so the key question is how best to invest it? In Dec 2022 our 55-site plan was estimated at £1.65million, based on previous average costs plus inflationary adjustment Page 84
Page 85
A hub-based approach The original 55-site plan (Dec 2022) costed at £1.65m can’t be delivered in full with the £1.033m now secured. We therefore need to prioritise investment where it has the greatest impact. We are therefore proposing a hub-based approach – clusters of chargers in key towns and island centres – providing: Reliability: multiple chargers reduce the risk of faults or queues. Better use of funds: higher usage = better cost recovery and maintenance value. Visitor and local benefit: located where people already spend time and money. Platform for future growth: once hubs are established, we can extend outwards to smaller communities and ferry points (“spokes” This hub-first model does not remove the ‘Charging on the Move’ theme — it remains central to ensuring through and onward connectivity along all major corridors Page 85
Page 86
Proposed hub methodology Strategic principle: Build reliable, visible hubs first, then expand to smaller “spokes” once the network backbone is established, ensuring full route coverage across Argyll and Bute. This also complements the existing network. Identify sites that deliver strategic coverage – locations where people visit, shop and work Potential for high utilisation Represent value for money Access to local amenities Avoid duplicating private provision Resilience and cluster logic Page 86
Page 87
Proposed hub methodology We have a proposed criteria for this based on population. The hub (single-site) methodology is: *when not near an existing large town We will add in an element of population swell through tourist locations where they would therefore move up to the next bracket: Population centres proposed for hubs reflect places where visitors and residents visit, rather than domestic users charging at home Population Rapid Fast Total 10k plus 5 5 10 5k to 10k 3 3 6 2k to 5k* 2 2 4 Page 87
Page 88
Proposed hub methodology Town/area Pop Tourist swell Hub/cluster Helensburgh 13k N 5R; 5F Oban 8.5k Y 5R; 5F Dunoon 8.9k N 3R; 3F Lochgilphead 2.3k N 2R; 2F Campbeltown 4.5k N 2R; 2F Islay – Bowmore 3k island Y 3R; 3F Mull – Craignure 3k island Y 3R; 3F Bute – Rothesay 6k island N 3R; 3F Page 88
Page 89
Proposed hub methodology To progress this we have asked our consultants to: Assess the current provision in each location including non ABC operated publicly available chargers. That assessment should consider as a ‘’hub’’ any chargers within a cluster area less than one mile from the hub site identified in the above table Focus on new hubs/expansion of existing to be on a single site Identify the number and type of chargers required to meet the above hub targets, after accounting for existing provision both Council and non-Council. Page 89
Page 90
Proposed hub methodology Assuming hubs/clusters will be developed on existing sites, base on following as the core deliverability criteria on the basis we are trying to assess if sites pass or fail: Proximity to existing electrical infrastructure; Compliance with accessibility standards; No flood risk Strong data connectivity To assess in binary terms whether the sites pass or fail Page 90
Page 91
Proposed hub methodology Include usage information on existing chargers at current sites. Determine total costs for any additional EVCs required to meet the above requirement. Assume mid range costs Assess scalable expansion options at each site Page 91
Page 92
Proposed approach Total funding secured: £1.033 million £100k reserved for repairs and maintenance (de- risking current network) £100k held as contingency for cost fluctuations. That leaves £833k for new delivery. Proposal: Deliver Phase 1 Hubs from this £833k. Once hub costs are known, apply the roads capital percentage split to the remaining balance for Phase 2 (smaller “spoke” sites) Page 92
Page 93
Proposed approach Phase 1 – Strategic Hubs Priority delivery of key sites across Argyll and the islands. Exact costs dependent on DNO connection estimates. Focus on reliability, visibility and usage. Phase 2 – Local delivery Remaining balance after hubs delivered. Split by the roads capital percentage to maintain equity: Bute & Cowal – 19.78% Helensburgh & Lomond – 10.67% Mid Argyll, Kintyre & Islay – 32.71% Oban, Lorn & the Isles – 36.84% Phase 2 decisions at local level (area committees) Page 93
Page 94
Phase Two – local delivery Phase 2 delivery will focus on individual chargers and smaller sites (‘spokes’) that maintain network continuity and local access. These sites could be selected and prioritised by Area Committees within their allocated share, to support local decision-making and flexibility under the strategic framework. Ensures alignment with the original thematic principles and equitable access across rural routes and communities. Page 94
Page 95
Proposed next steps Finalise consultant outputs (deliverability-only). Confirm hub costs with DNO. Draft full delivery plan for EDI Committee (Dec 2025). Ongoing engagement with Members through area committees. Page 95
Page 96
Risks and dependencies Hub costs unknown – DNO connection and ground conditions may vary widely. Private sector overlap – expansion by supermarkets, forecourts, etc. must be tracked to avoid duplication. Maintenance load – the growing network is managed by one officer; current resource may not be sustainable. Tariff sustainability – need to balance affordability with cost recovery. Back-office transition – migration to Scottish Power/Fuuse underway; minor risk of disruption during switchover. Page 96
Page 97
Operational update 37 Council-operated public chargers currently in place across Argyll and Bute. New regional back-office contract through Scottish Power (Fuuse platform): Improves automation and fault reporting. Allows dynamic tariffs and local control. Tariff remains £0.70/kWh – good balance between recovery and affordability. Improved uptime under new maintenance arrangements. Page 97
Page 98
Cross-footway charging Growing number of residents requesting to charge from home over public pavements. No national guidance from Transport Scotland. Local phased approach: Short-term: trial approved cable protectors. Medium-term: ducting pilot (2026). Long-term: formal policy and asset register. Working with disability groups to ensure accessibility compliance This could be a potential source of modest future income – in a similar way to drop kerbs Page 98
Page 99
Discussion Is the hub-first, theme-led model the right direction? Are the proposed funding splits fair? Any concerns on rural coverage? What role should private providers play? Page 99

ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL HELENSBURGH AND LOMOND AREA COMMITTEE DEVELOPMENT AND ECONOMIC GROWTH 9 DECEMBER 2025 HELENSBURGH SKATING POND IMPROVEMENTS PROJECT 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 The main purpose of this report is to provide information on key findings and options for both ecology and recreation improvements at the Helensburgh Skating Pond. 1.2 Helensburgh Skating Pond is a popular local nature reserve located at the top of Sinclair Street on the edge of town and links with a number of active travel routes. Over time the pond has become silted and is now 95% covered by vegetation which will eventually lead to it becoming birch wood, and along with the growth of invasive species on site, will have a negative impact on ecology. In addition, the paths, furniture and fencing are in need of repair thus affecting the recreational and visual aspects of the site. 1.3 Funding was allocated from the Scottish Government Nature Restoration Fund to better understand the site and how the site could be improved from both an ecological and recreational perspective. This also included a community consultation which demonstrated a desire for more open water and information on the ecology and history of the site. 1.4 Findings were considered for nature and recreation benefits and a Hybrid Option, which represents a balance of these benefits is the preferred option. 1.5 To deliver this, a range of works are required to fix the drainage, remove invasive species and silt, upgrade surfaces, install furniture and interpretation amongst others. The estimated costs of all works are circa £1m and it may be that costs can be reduced through in-house delivery and in-kind. It is also worth noting that this Hybrid Option includes access improvements that are not on Council land and though it would be good to deliver this, it is not a priority at this stage. 1.6 In August, the Council’s P&R Committee agreed to allocate £75k from the Nature Restoration Fund as a contribution to support capital works at the Skating Pond. This funding is not sufficient to deliver the full package of Page 103 Agenda Item 11
Page 104
enhancements identified in the preferred option and officers continue to seek external sources of funding to enable any works to be delivered. These external funds may include the Nature Restoration Fund and Crown Estates amongst others and are subject to Scottish Government allocations, as well as competing priorities and require approval by Policy and Resources Committee. 1.7 Given the estimated costs of the preferred option, it is proposed that the project will require to be delivered in phases. It is considered that this will require funding to be identified over a number of financial years and from several external sources. 1.8 Estimated maintenance costs for the Skating Pond are currently £5k per annum however, this figure does not include an allowance for tree or pond maintenance. It is anticipated that maintenance costs for the pond would be an additional £4k per annum. Any capital investment in the site would require to be underpinned by a commitment to fund an ongoing resourcing, management and maintenance plan. 1.9 It is recommended that the Helensburgh and Lomond Area Committee: i. To note and consider the findings and that the preferred option is the Hybrid Option which delivers both ecology and visitor benefits, and that officers are continuing to explore long terms options for the Skating Pond site. ii. To note that circa £1m is required to deliver the project in full which has not yet been identified, and that officers continue to seek external funding. iii. To note the £75k allocation of Nature Restoration Fund towards ecological improvements. iv. To agree updates regarding Skating Pond improvements as and when additional funding is secured. Page 104

4.0 DETAIL Background 4.1 Helensburgh Skating Pond is a 2.1 hectare site located at the top of Sinclair Street and is within an Area for Action identified in the LDP2. It forms part of what was originally three reservoirs and is an important recreational and biodiversity site with a Local Natural Conservation Site designation. It is also an open space protection area which forms part of the Green Network and the Core Path Plan and the Green Belt bordering Helensburgh. 4.2 The site is regularly used by people who walk the perimeter and also to access the adjoining paths to the fishing reservoir, the John Muir Way and others. Over time the pond has become silted and overgrown with 95% vegetation cover therefore very little open water. Invasive species have taken over some areas and the paths, furniture and fencing are in need of repair. 4.3 The Helensburgh Skating Pond Improvements project therefore aims to provide an improved ecological and recreation site that demonstrates environmental excellence and is easily managed and maintained. 4.4 Funding to undertake the current phase of investigations came from Scottish Government Nature Restoration Funds and were approved by P&R Committee in August. The Fund has four strategic themes: • Habitat restoration – management for enhancement and connectivity • Freshwater restoration, including hydrological change • Eradication of invasive non-native species impacting on nature; and • Coastal and marine management to promote restoration and resilience. 4.5 Following a tender process, Scott+Simmons were appointed to address the following objectives at the Skating Pond: I. To catalogue and understand the ecology of the site II. To understand community requirements for the site III. To identify solutions and costs for a larger area of water to be opened up IV. To consider a sustainable future that includes environmentally sensitive management and maintenance that fits with budget V. To consider suitable access at the site including the path surrounding the pond and car parking VI. To consider environmental interpretation and learning opportunities VII. To provide costed options for the improvements, management and maintenance (preliminary estimates or detailed estimates?) VIII. To provide a technical brief for the preferred option to input into the tender process Page 106
Page 107
Current Position 4.6 Scott+Simmons have delivered objectives I-VII and identified a number of options for the regeneration of the Skating Pond site. They will now begin preparation of a technical brief for tender purposes to be issued when sufficient funds are available. Further investigations and design works will be required as part of this. Key findings are listed below. 4.7 Community Consultation: To understand community requirements for the site a community consultation and engagement exercise took place in spring/summer 2025. This included a questionnaire, an in-person day on site, and also an artist session with both John Logie Baird and Colgrain Primary Schools (140 pupils) and the young carers group. The consultation resulted in 440 responses with the majority of respondents requesting improvements to the pond and to know more about the wildlife and history of the site. The majority of respondents are aged 65+ and 11% have mobility issues. Most people visit the site weekly in the afternoon and arrive by car, closely followed by monthly visits and on average 75 people visit the site each day. This level of use demonstrates the importance of the site for recreation, requirement for appropriate access and a desire for learning about the site. 4.8 Ecology Reports: To understand the ecology of the site a number of studies were undertaken including invertebrates, Protected Species, Scottish Biodiversity List priority species and habitat. The key findings of the Ecology Reports are that if left unchecked the willow scrub will eventually cover the whole of the Skating Pond leading to a less diverse system however, too much removal of pond vegetation will lead to less biodiversity. There is no ’right’ amount of vegetation, however too little is undesirable. Invasive Non-Native Species (INNS) include the Crassula helmsii in the pond which requires specialist removal and draw down of water, and the Rhododendron ponticum which should be controlled and managed to prevent regrowth. A total of 31 bird species were recorded with 19 breeding species. Just under half of those as species of conservation concern. Sightings of frog tadpoles and a palmate newt were noted. At least three species of bat were recorded foraging in high numbers and two trees with bat Potential Roosting Features (PRFs) were located at the pond edge. Suitable habitat is present on site for hedgehogs and amphibians and will therefore likely be present. Any vegetation work must be carefully carried out to ensure no impact to nesting or hibernating species. No evidence of otter, badger, water vole, or red squirrel were recorded. The main biodiversity consideration for the council are the aquatic invertebrates which must be sensitively managed and appropriate mitigation measures implemented to ensure minimal impact. 4.9 Drainage Assessment: To understand how the pond functions a drainage assessment was undertaken. The key findings were that the pond has reduced in levels from 1.5m to between 200-400mm and may be fed only by rainfall and a small catchment area comprising of the field above the pond rather than an Page 107
Page 108
inlet. Local model boating enthusiasts were consulted and a level of 1.2m is necessary for boating. The requirement was therefore to consider how to increase the water levels and three options were presented namely 1) raising the exiting outfall spill, 2) reprofiling the wider catchment and 3) formalising a spillway from the Milligs Burn. 4.10 Conditions Report: This considered the surfaces, edges, structures and furniture, water, boundaries and fencing, planting, entrances and car park. Overall the condition of all these elements have degraded over time and require repair, replacement and/or redesign with the timber decking requiring most urgent attention. The paths at both ends linking to Reservoir Two (Fishing Reservoir) have historic kissing gates which are a barrier to access, and also upon exit at the north corner nearest to Reservoir One there is a collapsed bridge. Although this is not within the Skating Pond itself it is worth noting that replacement of this might be a project for partners to consider. The far corner near the road is used as a desire line for those walking the John Muir Way to avoid local road traffic and this requires to be formalised. Issues have been highlighted related to speeding traffic and zebra controlled traffic calming measures are proposed for consideration by Roads and Infrastructure Services. 4.11 Interpretation: Currently there is no information on ecology or history at the site nor signposting to other paths/routes. This could be undertaken in a creative way that includes both interpretation panels, functional elements such as interpretation/identity of the site on gates and a wildlife hide or dipping pond structure. Proposal/Preferred Option 4.12 All of the above reports have fed into a range of options which will be the subject of a presentation on the day of the Area Committee and are summarised in the next paragraph. 4.13 The options are a) Do Nothing – results in the pond turning into birch wood over time thus loosing biodiversity, b) Mosaic – high ecological benefit, more costly to manage and lower quality nature site for visitors, c) Open Water – lowest ecological benefit and d) Hybrid – provides both ecological benefits and a quality nature site for visitors. 4.14 The preferred option is considered to be the Hybrid scheme as this provides the best compromise of ecological and recreational benefits. Cost Estimates 4.15 A range of works have been considered as part of the options and these include the following: i. Drainage ii. Pond – silt removal iii. Removal of invasive species iv. Planting Page 108
Page 109
v. Roads, paths, pavings and surfacings vi. Fencing, railings and gates vii. External features incl. benches, picnic tables and improvements to boardwalks, signage and interpretation 4.16 The estimated capital costs are circa £1m. This include prelims, contingency, design development, additional surveys, statutory approvals and project management. Officers continue to seek external funding to progress this project and Members will be updated when further funding is secured. 4.17 The estimated capital costs include works to improve access at the far corner of the Skating Pond which is not in council ownership. It may be that this could be funded in later years, delivered in-kind or excluded from scope as although important for access, would require permissions and consideration of liability. 4.18 Maintenance costs for the Skating Pond are currently circa £5k per annum for grass cutting and edging, and there are no figures available for pond or tree maintenance which are required but are not cyclical. It is anticipated that there will be a need for circa £4kpa for pond maintenance in addition to grounds maintenance costs. Any pond works will require a commitment to a sustainable Management and Maintenance Plan that ensures resources are available to maintain any investment. 4.19 Officers were aware that the costs would be high and have succeeded in securing £75k of funding at this stage. It is anticipated that funding for the Skating Pond improvements could be accessed from both the Nature Restoration Fund and alternative external funds such as Crown Estates and Active Travel programmes subject to suitability (the criteria of funding needs to match the works undertaken) and the availability of funds. This is dependent on Scottish Government allocation of funding, and also allocation of funds to a level that would allow for consideration of the Skating Pond as one of a number of projects going forward to P&R Committee each August for approval. Given the amounts required it is proposed that the project is delivered in phases, depending on the funding allocated in each year and any changes to costs within tender returns. Table One – Example Funding Plan outlines how this may be achieved. 4.19 It should be noted that the costs set out in this report are estimates and may rise or fall when a full tender exercise is undertaken. Some of the works could also potentially be delivered in house subject to resources. In addition, exploratory talks with MoD to consider volunteering and in-kind contributions to the Skating Pond are underway and this may off-set some of the costs. Page 109

Table One – Example Funding Plan 5.0 CONCLUSION 5.1 The Helensburgh Skating Pond is a well used local nature reserve, leisure and recreation site, and an area for action in the LDP however is in need of extensive restoration. External funding has enabled detailed assessments of the site to provide a range of options which will improve ecology, leisure and recreation whilst being appropriate to manage and maintain. Of the options presented, the Hybrid Option is considered to provide the most balanced way forward for ecology and community aspirations. 5.2 The preferred option will cost circa £1m to deliver in full with associated maintenance costs of c£9k per annum of which £5k is currently budgeted. Members are asked to note that funding has not been identified to deliver this project in full. Funding of £75k has been allocated to date via the Nature Restoration Fund and officers will continue to explore external funding opportunities for this project. 6.0 IMPLICATIONS 6.1 Policy: Open Space Protection, LDP2 Area for Action, Local Nature Reserve, Green Network, Core Path. 6.2 Financial: OPEX circa £4kpa. Capital costs will be requested from Nature Restoration Fund and others such as Active Travel and Crown Estates funding. 6.3 Legal: Discussions required with Scottish Water for pond works. 6.4 HR: Delivered within current staff compliment and potentially lead design consultant. 6.5 Customer Service: Improves access for customers.

CHARITABLE TRUSTS, BEQUESTS AND TRUST FUNDS 1.0 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1 The Helensburgh and Lomond Area Committee are Trustees for a number of Charitable Trusts, Bequests and Trust Funds. Historically a report has been brought to the Area Committee on an annual basis with recommendations for distribution. 1.2 Officers continually seek to simplify and update processes where possible to ensure ongoing compliance with the original terms of the bequests and to reduce the administrative burden of the management and distribution. There remains a number of challenges with a single charitable fund that was established many years ago, and as a consequence of changes in society over time the intended beneficiaries of the bequests are no longer easily identified. 1.3 This report provides details of a number of the Trusts and Bequests that remain active in the Helensburgh and Lomond Area and seeks agreement from Members on proposed distribution methods. 2.0 RECOMMENDATIONS 2.1 The Helensburgh and Lomond Area Committee are asked to: 1. consider the financial position of the Charitable Trusts, Bequests and Trust Funds as of August 2025, 2. agree to make available all unrestricted funds from the Helensburgh & Faslane Cemeteries Fund to Roads and Infrastructure and thereafter to place a moratorium on the fund; 3. agree that the ‘John Logie Baird Prize Fund’ prize be limited to £30, and 4. agree that the Miss Annie Dickson Bequest is awarded on the basis outlined in paragraph 5.4 and defined within appendix 1.

CHARITABLE TRUSTS, BEQUESTS AND TRUST FUNDS 3.0 INTRODUCTION 3.1 The Helensburgh and Lomond Area Committee are Trustees of a number of Charitable Trusts, Bequests and Trust Funds. This report provides information on proposals in relation to the ongoing management of these funds and seeks agreement on distribution proposals. 4.0 RECOMMENDATIONS 4.1 The Helensburgh and Lomond Area Committee are asked to: 1. consider the financial position of the Charitable Trusts, Bequests and Trust Funds as of August 2025, 2. agree to make available all unrestricted funds from the Helensburgh & Faslane Cemeteries Fund to Roads and Infrastructure and thereafter to place a moratorium on the fund; 3. agree that the ‘John Logie Baird Prize Fund’ prize be limited to £30, and 4. agree that the Miss Annie Dickson Bequest is awarded on the basis outlined in paragraph 5.4 and defined within appendix 1. 5.0 BACKGROUND & DISTRIBUTION ARRANGEMENTS 5.1 Historically reports are prepared and submitted to Area Committees outlining the status of each of the funds, proposed distribution method(s) and the amounts available. 5.2 In September 2020 the Area Committee agreed that those funds that hold less than £1k in unrestricted reserves (i.e. monies the charity has available to spend without drawing on capital or restricted reserves) be made available, in their totality, during the financial year (2021/22). 5.3 In December 2021 the Area Committee agreed to place a moratorium on the distribution of monies from 4 of the 7 funds that had historically been awarded ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL HELENSBURGH AND LOMOND AREA COMMITTEE LEGAL & REGULATORY SUPPORT 9 December 2025 Page 114
Page 115
to Council Departments and allied partners. This approach served to lessen the administrative burden and will allow interest to accumulate to ensure maximum community benefit at a later date. A similar approach was taken in December 2023 with the Area Committee agreeing to ‘Kidston Park’ unrestricted funds being awarded, in their totality, to enhance the £368,500 Play Park renewal programme within the Helensburgh and Lomond area. A moratorium was subsequently placed on these funds. 5.4 The Area Committee in December 2024 agreed to make available all unrestricted funds from the Helensburgh & Faslane Cemeteries Fund to Roads and Infrastructure and thereafter to place a moratorium on the fund. Roads and Infrastructure did not draw down these funds, with the balance now sitting at around £1k available for distribution. To realise community benefit from this fund it is recommended that the totality of this fund be made available to Roads and Infrastructure Services, on completion of works that meet the terms of the fund. Should the associated works reach the total amount available, it is recommended that a moratorium thereafter be placed on this fund. 5.5 In order to give a level of consistency to the process for those which are transferred to Council Departments or allied partners it is proposed that the Miss Annie Dickson Bequest be allocated on the basis of the interest from the previous financial year plus 1/20th of the unrestricted funds. This approach being the recommendation of Financial Officers as a means for members to meet their fiscal responsibilities as trustees, specifically that the funds are maintained over the longer term and not exhausted. 5.6 The exemption to this rule is the funds which relates to a school prize, ‘John Logie Baird Prize Fund’. 5.7 It is suggested the amount associated with the John Logie Baird Prize Fund be £30 this is in line with those awarded in other areas. This will be paid by Finance on receipt of confirmation of the recipient from the school and is awarded to a pupil showing the greatest ability in the subjects of Science and Mathematics. 5.8 Due to a number of factors including, changes in society over time and changes to personnel and corporate structures the intended beneficiaries of a single fund, Clydesdale Air Raid Distress fund, are no longer easily identified. Officers had been in ongoing dialogue with representatives from both the Lord Advocates office and The Scottish Charity Regulator in an attempt to establish appropriate methods of distributing these funds. 5.9 Largely as a consequence of the lack of associated documentation of the funds, despite making all reasonable enquiries, very little progress had been made. Consequently officers are of the opinion that progress can only now be made by following the provisions within the Law Reform (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Scotland ) Act 1990 and The Public Trusts (Reorganisation) (Scotland) (No.2) to re-organise the funds. 6.0 CONCLUSION Page 115
Page 116
6.1 This report has outlined the current position in terms of financial and distribution arrangements of the funds/bequests held in trust by the Area Committees. On approving the recommendations they will provide a clear community benefit while meeting our obligation of ensuring transparent and effective governance. 7.0 IMPLICATIONS 7.1 Policy - None. 7.2 Financial - None. 7.3 Legal - Area Committees, as Trustees, must ensure that the distribution arrangements comply with the terms of the funds/bequests, failure to do so would result in the Council being liable. 7.4 HR - To proceed with reorganisation, in terms of section 10 or 11 of the Law Reform (Miscellaneous Provisions) (Scotland) Act 1990 would require the allocation of Officer time. 7.5 Customer Service 7.6 Risk - None 7.7 Climate Change – None 7.8 Fairer Scotland Duty – None 7.9 Equalities - protected characteristics – None 7.10 Consumer Duty – None 7.11 Island Communities – None 7.12 Children’s Rights and Wellbeing – None Douglas Hendry Executive Director with responsibility for Legal & Regulatory Support December 2025 Policy Lead - Councillor Mark Irvine Appendix 1 – Distribution Arrangements for Trust Funds and Bequests.

RELEVANT DATA & INDICATORS 4.1 FQ1 2025/26 (April – June) Performance Summary Overall performance for FQ1 notes that 77 KPI’s are scoring against target, with 41 (53%) reporting as on-track. The KPI’s report performance against the target and include the target, actual and variance and is a mix of both quantitative and qualitative indicators. The use of the green, amber and red graphics within the Dashboard is used to give an overview of the HSCP’s total performance for each of the twelve services and 77 KPI’s. The use of only green and red for the KPI’s is used to focus delivery with regards to sustaining performance on or above target. 4.2 Analysis of Key Performance This analysis identifies performance across the 12 service reporting categories within the Integrated Performance Management Framework (IPMF). 4.2.1 Children & Families Across 5 KPIs, Children & Families and Justice performance notes 4 (80%) on track, with1 (20%) off track, against the targets set for Q1 25/26. Performance on or above target: • Improve the percentage of Child Protection Register (CPR) cases that have an allocated Social Worker met the 100% target this FQ1 • Children & Adolescent Mental Health Services (CAMHS) tier 3 seen within 18 weeks of referral, 90% target was met in FQ1. Page 120
Page 121

This KPI has a national target of 95% and we achieved 92% in FQ1. 4.2.13 National Health & Wellbeing Outcome Indicators & Ministerial Steering Group Integration Indicators The National Health and Wellbeing Outcomes provide a strategic framework for the planning and delivery of health and social care services. This suite of outcomes serves to focus on improving the experiences and quality of services for people using those services, carers, and their families. These indicators form the basis of the annual reporting requirement for Health and Social Care Partnerships across Scotland. The national indicators will be updated and reported within A&B HSCP’s Integrated Performance Management Framework to provide the national performance position alongside the local service Key Performance Indicators suite. The latest data in relation to 26 HWBOI and MSG Indicators reports 50% on track, with 13 on track and 13 off track. An overview of A&B HSCP’s latest performance against the 26 measures is reported in Appendix 1. It should be noted that reporting periods vary across the suite of national indicator measures, with some measures reported quarterly affected by national reporting data lag. 5. CONTRIBUTION TO STRATEGIC PRIORITIES The monitoring and reporting against Key Performance Indicators using the Integrated Performance Management Framework and Dashboard ensures the HSCP is able to deliver against key strategic priorities. This in-turn is aligned with the Strategic Plan and key objectives. 6. GOVERNANCE IMPLICATIONS 6.1 Financial Impact Financial performance is evidenced within the IPMF Dashboard ensuring best value as well as evidencing the impact and performance against organisational budget savings. 6.2 Staff Governance Key performance indicators within the IPMF ensure that staff governance requirements continue to be progressed and developed include health and safety, wellbeing and new service redesign and working practices. 6.3 Care and Clinical Governance Clinical Governance and patient safety remain at the core of prioritised service delivery against the new IPMF Dashboard and National Health & Wellbeing Outcomes Indicators. The new governance structure supporting the IPMF ensures that the Clinical & Care Governance Committee remain central to performance improvement. The development of the IPMF is focussed on moving away from previous traditional styles of reporting to a fully collaborative approach with Head of Service and Service Lead commentary. 7. PROFESSIONAL ADVISORY Data used within the performance dashboard is fully accessible in SharePoint with data trends and forecasting are identified to give wider strategic context. This provides the HSCP professional advisors with self –service performance information to inform their role in maintaining professional standards and outcomes. Page 127

ARGYLL AND BUTE COUNCIL HELENSBURGH AND LOMOND AREA COMMITTEE SAKURA CHERRY TREE PROJECT UPDATE 9th DECEMBER 2025 SAKURA CHERRY TREE PROJECT UPDATE 1.0 INTRODUCTION 1.1 In April 2024 the Lord-Lieutenant of Argyll and Bute contacted the Executive Director with responsibility for Legal and Regulatory Support to explore the possibility of working in partnership to secure a number of flowering cherry trees, to be planted across Argyll and Bute, through the Sakura Cherry Tree Project. 1.2 The project was established in 2016 in recognition of decades of friendship between the United Kingdom and Japan and to further strengthen relationships between the two countries. Flowering cherry tree saplings are provided to communities free of charge for planting in public spaces where everyone can enjoy them. 1.3 This report provides an update on progress in relation to this partnership project between the Lieutenancy of Argyll and Bute and the Council. 2.0 RECOMMENDATIONS It is recommended that the Area Committee: 2.1 Note the contents of this report. 3.0 DETAIL 3.1 In April 2024 the Sakura Cherry Tree Project made contact with the Lieutenancy of Argyll and Bute with the offer of free flowering cherry trees to be planted locally. Trees reserved in April 2024 would be available for delivery from November 2025. Page 135 Agenda Item 14
Page 136
3.2 The Sakura Cherry Tree Project was established in 2016 in recognition of decades of friendship between the United Kingdom and Japan and to further strengthen relationships between the two countries. Flowering cherry tree saplings are provided for planting in public spaces where everyone can enjoy them. These offers are traditionally made through local Lieutenancies. The project had an initial target of 1,000 trees across the United Kingdom, but this has expanded with 8,000 trees having been planted since its inception. 3.3 The trees are provided completely free of charge, with the only request being that they are planted in easily accessible locations where they can be enjoyed by as many people as possible, such as parks, playgrounds, community land, schools or other public spaces. They have an expected life span of around thirty years. 3.4 Upon receipt of the offer, the Lord-Lieutenant of Argyll and Bute contacted the Executive Director with responsibility for Legal and Regulatory Support, who is also the Clerk to the Lieutenancy, to explore scope for working in partnership with the council to reserve trees for delivery in November 2025. 3.5 The Executive Director made contact with the Council’s Amenity Services team who agreed that they would be willing to assist in the distribution and planting of the trees following delivery and in line with the specialist guidance provided. 3.6 Subsequently, the Executive Director contacted all Elected Members seeking their views on possible locations for planting trees in their local communities. Ideas had to be submitted in line with the Project’s deadline of 30th April 2024, so that trees could be reserved to meet the November 2025 delivery target. 3.7 A number of Elected Members responded to the request and, after liaising with local residents, provided a range of suggestions where flowering cherry trees could be planted locally for the enjoyment and benefit of the community. The Helensburgh and Lomond locations contributed are listed at Appendix 1. These suggestions were passed to the Lord-Lieutenant who made contact with the Sakura Cherry Tree Project to accept the offer on behalf of Argyll and Bute. 3.8 The Lieutenancy has now received word from the Project that trees are due for delivery to premises in Lochgilphead during November. Following receipt of the trees, colleagues in Amenity Services will assist with the distribution and planting of the trees, adhering to the planting guidance provided, over the course of the coming months. Updates will be provided to local Elected Members by email to notify them of upcoming arrangements, when finalised, for their ward. Page 136
