“In North Ayrshire in the first instance,
Fastrack Funding which we introduced in June means releasing sufficient
additional resources for the redemption of the Ailsa Road/High Road site
in Saltcoats”
“The area is an informal play area
for the locale and urgently required redemption both in the interests of
public safety and amenity and this financial allocation will allow the
Council to adequately address the community issues which have been raised
through dereliction and collapse on this site” said Mr Wilson.
Editors Note;
This will involve making the wider
area safe for hand push mowers for maintenance and re-constructing the
footpath link between the neighbouring houses and local amenities. In addition,
the affected houses will require to be grouted. The new reinforced footpath
would be constructed along a similar line to the present, but modified
at the north to splay to serve the housing in both directions. This will
replace the informal path across the site. The remaining area would be
fenced off and be suitable only for soiling and seeding for amenity purposes.
