Masterplan working group update and follow-up from Jim Muirhead
Ahead of Remembrance Sunday, attandance at this meeting was a clear indicator of community frustration about the state of our public spaces and willingness to contribute to village development. Cllr Jim Muirhead was in attendance to hear it first hand.

We meet Gillian Cousin, our new Midlothian Council Communities Officer. She’s taken on a lot amid the lack of activity on the Newtongrange Masterplan and deterioration of our public spaces.
Open forum with Christine Graham MSP, to raise local issues – village centre development, bus and train services expected to be highlighted
Expected discussion on Village Masterplan, meeting with Grant MacKay from Housing and Planning
Expected discussion on Village Masterplan, meeting with MC Land and Countryside Manager regarding Flowerbeds and an introduction to Community Resilience
