Public Invited To Propose Names For New Building

Argyll and Bute Council is inviting local people to propose names for a new building development.

The building will provide a 'one-stop-shop' for key council services, space for community groups and a marriage suite for couples, families and friends.

Other features include a cafe, gallery and meeting rooms.

In addition, landscaped grounds outside are open for public use, including an outdoor events and marriage area as well as a community garden.

The project has been supported by the Anderson family, who agreed money from the sale of the old Templeton Library could be used for the community annexe in the new building.

With the building nearly completed, the council is now working with its contractors and all parties involved to resolve outstanding issues.

Councillor Gary Mulvaney  said: "This building is set to play a key part in the civic and community life of people in Helensburgh, for people who choose it as a wedding venue, for community groups who use it for recreation purposes and for people who use the council services it houses. The Council therefore invested in and will deliver a high quality venue.

"We are working with all parties involved to ensure that Helensburgh gets a venue that is enjoyable for all to use and that the community can be proud of."

Local people are encouraged to send their ideas to press@argyll-bute.gov.uk no later than 11 September.
