A bid by the Conservative administration to revisit the demolition of Ayr’s high flats was resoundingly beaten at the last meeting of South Ayrshire Council before recess.
Depute Leader Lee Lyons, seconded by independent Bob Shields, sought to get answers on the status of work being carried out at Riverside Place, the full cost of the demolition, the steps the council would need to take to cancel the demolition and the consequences of such a decision.
He also sought a new report on how the council could refurbish the three blocks, along with the cost and timescale for such a programme.
