I am pleased that the council has agreed to remove the lock up garages from the middle of “The Woodies” off Broomhill Road.

After being contacted by a number of residents, I asked council roads staff when the latest phase of the resurfacing of Gray Street’s pavements would be carried out.

The police update to Garthdee Community Council’s meeting on 9th March covered a range of issues including vandalism, antisocial behaviour, theft, assaults and the ongoing police response to COVID.

A number of residents have been in touch with me about pollution in the pond at Johnston Gardens.

The February police report for Braeside and Mannofield is now available.

After being contacted by residents, I have urged the council to repair potholes and broken areas in roads including Craigton Terrace, Garthdee Drive and Hammerfield Avenue.

Very annoyingly, despite the Roads Service saying the street lights around the Broomhill Road / South Anderson Drive roundabout had been repaired, there are still problems with the lights coming on at the right time. 

Permission has been given to convert the Mariner Hotel into nine flats and a house and to build two semidetached houses in the hotel car park.

Thank you to everyone who has highlighted to me problems with dog waste bins being emptied.

The Roads Service has repaired potholes on Nellfield Place after I highlighted this problem on behalf of a resident who said driving over these potholes “rattles your teeth”.
