Perth and Kinross Council has defended a decision to task contractors involved in the creation of the new Cross Tay Link Road (CTLR) to complete a clean-up of the city’s Lade after questions were raised about the arrangement at a public meeting.
Attendees of the most recent virtual meeting of Scone and District Community Council (SDCC) were told BAM Nuttall had been asked to do the work to meet a requirement agreed through its contract for the link road project to improve parts of the local authority area.
Vice chair Jill Belch said she had recently attended a public meeting arranged by the council to discuss what kind of work people in the village would like to see carried out in their area through the company’s contractual obligation to do something of community benefit for local residents.
