PվɫÇéƬ

Work is progressing on giving piers and harbours in PվɫÇéƬ and Bute a makeover as part of a £9.2 million investment by the council to support island and rural communities with marine links to the mainland and/or central belt.

Measures taken by the council to protect the PվɫÇéƬ and Bute’s outstanding natural environment are helping to ensure the area remains one of Scotland’s top tourism locations.

PվɫÇéƬ has agreed £2 million of measures to keep people moving this winter.

Members of the public are to have their say on PվɫÇéƬ’s plans to create a Municipal Harbour Authority in Oban.

PվɫÇéƬ is urging short-term let owners to submit applications for the new Scottish Government Short-term Licensing Scheme before the 1 October deadline.

Local businesses across PվɫÇéƬ and Bute are the backbone of communities, providing independent services and supporting local employment.

Marking the success of PվɫÇéƬ and Bute’s young people was top of the agenda at today’s Community Services Committee as councillors approved an update to the council’s Education Strategic Plan for 2022-24.
