Stranraer flower-bed consultation success
Dumfries and Galloway Council is pleased to announce that during their recent consultation, we were contacted by a large number of groups and individuals who wished to take over the management of the bedding areas in Wigtownshire.
The Council are very pleased to announce that the following organisations will now be completing planting and maintaining the following areas:
Port Rodie Roundabout Tesco, Stranraer
Market Street Stranraer BID’s
Springwell Road Corner YMCA, Apex and Morrisons
Stoneykirk Road Verges Wigtownshire Chamber of Commerce and Logan Botanic Gardens
In addition to all of the above, Seaforth Nurseries are also supporting the projects.
Chair of the Wigtown Area Committee, Councillor Marion McCutcheon stated;
“We were overwhelmed with the response from both organisations and individuals in relation to this consultation and their offers to take over the planting and management of the various flower beds within Stranraer. We are also heartened to see so many groups working together in partnership with each other to plant and maintain displays within these bedding areas. We wish these groups every success with their displays and would again like to thank each and every person and organisation which contacted us. It is wonderful to see so much support for this type of project and just highlights how many organisations are out there in Stranraer, and how the Council is committed to working with communities to enhance the region’s towns.”
