Kilmadock Community Council (KCC)

Kilmadock Community Council

The KCC is an elected group of 11 self-nominated constituents, who represent the residents of the Kilmadock area. It is the lowest tier of Scottish local government, elected every four years by postal ballot by all on the electoral register. Two further seats are reserved for youth members from Doune and Deanston students attending High School.  Community counsellors stand as individuals and are debarred from representing political parties or religious interests. They receive no financial allowances.

The main objectives of the KCC are to ascertain and reflect the views of the community, and communicate with Stirling Council on matters concerning well-being, environment and development of the local area. KCC members contribute both individual and team efforts, meeting with representatives from Stirling Council to discuss and propose actions, and any matters affecting residents, such as all planning and licensing applications in the area.  The KCC also makes representations to public and private agencies on all major economic, housing, transport, environmental, policing and social issues affecting the area.

Some groups associated with the KCC have included the Woodland Group, Christmas Lights, Moray Park Planning, Hanging Baskets and planted roadside verges.

The Council year is September to June, with meetings held on the second Monday of the month at 7.30pm.  January and June (AGM) meetings are held in Deanston Primary, whilst the others are hosted in either the Muir Hall, Doune or Doune Library.

Members of the public are invited to raise items for the agenda, and may also attend meetings.

Contact can be made via  kilmadockcommunitycouncil@hotmail.co.uk  or in writing c/o Doune Library, 5 Main Street, Doune FK16 6BJ.

All communication is treated with diplomatic respect.
