Andrew,

Clark Contracts have just recently been appointed and are going through a mobilisation process which includes agreeing site perimeter, seeking any road diversion requirements including planning/roads consents and the preparation of there development programme. The preparatory work does take time however I understand the perimeter fencing will start to be erected next week. It is the Council’s intention to prepare a news bulletin that will incorporate all detail with regard to the site development, disturbance issues and contractor programme, once available, and this will be issued to all Denny households. The information will also be displayed on the Council’s web site, local display screens and within the Regeneration office which, as you know, is attended on a Tuesday morning.

Please do not hesitate to give me a call if you require any further information

Kind Regards

Morning Andrew

Apologies for the delay in responding to you I was off on annual leave.

Whilst there is no requirement to have shutters, many owner/occupiers adopt them to address possible vandalism and security problems and to lower their insurance premiums.  I understand that local retailers will be meeting in the near future and I will forward your email and suggest this as a discussion topic.

You will be pleased to know that we are currently looking at floral enhancements for the town centre and are looking at locations, consents and maintenance
issues -  I will of course keep you informed of progress on this.

Kind regards

NOT PROTECTIVELY MARKED

Just to keep you updated with local developments,

I am aware of the high community impact caused by the two robberies which occurred in Denny last October and January this year. The enquiry has been overseen by DI Graeme Hendry, and as a result of protracted enquiry by a dedicated team of officers, a 23 year old man was detained in Cumbernauld this morning in relation to both robberies. He has since been arrested and will be appearing at Falkirk Sheriff Court tomorrow (4.4.15) with a remand being sought given the nature of the incidents. We have prepared a media release so information should be out there for the community.

Thank you all for your continued support and community reassurance in the interim period.

As a result of protracted enquiry by a dedicated team led by DI Graeme Hendry, a 23 year old man was detained in the Cumbernauld area this morning and has now been arrested for both robberies. He is expected to appear at Falkirk Sheriff Court tomorrow (Saturday 4th April 2015).

Detective Inspector Graeme Hendry says "I am pleased to bring this enquiry to a positive conclusion and would like to thank the many members of the public who provided information which was invaluable in reaching this outcome."
