A typical Wednesday

Following the morning at work in Glasgow, I came into the Council offices this afternoon for scheduled meetings with the Chief Executive (2.30), the Coalition Administration (4.30) and Labour Group (5.30). Due to the Planning Board meeting taking longer than usual the Coalition meeting did not start until 5.30, with the result that I did not set off for home until close to 7.00.

During my weekly meeting with the Chief Executive we discussed the Council's response to the current severe weather conditions. While praising Council staff for their sterling efforts we agreed that it would be appropriate to undertake a review of the Council's winter maintenance policies and practices to identify if there are any lessons that require to be learned in light of the exceptional circumstances we have faced over the last few weeks. The Chief Executive will arrange for this review to be undertaken and a report submitted to the Council's Safe Sustainable Communities Committee.
