What's on the agenda?
Southerness Community Council is set up by statute and run by local residents to act on behalf their community. Community councils in Scotland are the most local tier of statutory representation and are intended to bridge the gap between local authorities and communities and help to make public bodies aware of the opinions and needs of the communities they represent.
