The Development Management Sub Committee (DMSC) of Edinburgh City Council met today, 9th January, with power to grant, refuse or continue consideration of planning applications. The focus of the meeting for Murrayfield Community Council (MCC) and local residents alike was the proposed development of Tor, 30 Corstorphine Road. This is an important site containing Grade B listed buildings within the West Murrayfield Conservation Area. The Chief Planning Officer had issued a Report recommending GRANT, which MCC strenuously opposed.

Pictures speak louder than words - Well done to all involved in making the new Roseburn Playpark a reality. Congratulations. Its over to our younger members in the community to make good use of these new play facilities and enjoy.
Litter - bin it or take it home with you. Litter leaves a mess it certainly isn't pretty to look at and impacts our environment.
On the Water of Leith walkway litter picking is done by volunteers. Don't leave your litter for to others to pick up - bin it!
