Answers to some questions raised during a meeting of local councillors have now been published on the local authority's website.
Council chiefs have defended the decision to site a commercial development at Helensburgh ’s waterfront, saying it will create “much-needed jobs” in the town centre.
More than 3700 people have signed a petition against the siting of a supermarket on Helensburgh’s waterfront. Councillor Fiona Howard, who was chairing the meeting, said at the start that all questions on the subject would be referred to officers for a full response. “It is national and local planning policy to create retail space within town centres and that is preferable to out-of-town retail as it keeps spending within the town and complements other retailers.
Some other questions, contained within minutes of the meeting, have yet to be addressed on the council website.
