MOY MATTERS (6)
Many thanks to those who came along and supported our community engagement evening in March. It was good to have a chat and get lots of new ideas for future projects. Also a big thank you for the great turn out we had for our litter pick – it was amazing! We couldn’t believe just how much rubbish was collected. Areas covered were: Moy Moss right along to the A9 junction, Moy Estate; the road down to Tullochclury and the loch side path; Ruthven – from the A9 down to the bridge; and Lynebeg. We plan to have another litter pick day in the Autumn.
Progress to date:
-
Tidying up of footpath: the path is now complete. McGowans are due back shortly to sort out any snagging, put down weedkiller on the new section of verge and finally sow some grass seed.
-
Tidying up the path around Moy Loch (Birch walk): we hope this will be done in the summer after the birds have finished nesting.
-
New signs for Moy: the graphic designer has completed the drawings and we now await the signs being made up.
-
Meeting place: no further progress at the moment
-
Moy FB page: it is called Moy sub-committee. Please ‘like’ us and join us. Feel free to post. Also if you are out and about and take photos in our lovely area, we would love to see them. There are already photos from our litter pick on the page.
-
Can we ask that everyone keeps a regular check on the planters and the plants, especially in this dry weather and if ever there is a problem please let us know.
The Moy Sub-Committee has its own folder in the Document library on the Strathdearn community website where you can keep up to date with the minutes of meetings, background documents and the latest reports.
