Provost Close area

Provost close is a multi story building in the centre. The tenants have no gardens etc An area with seating bench and planters would be nice for the tenants in summer. Building has a lot of elderly tenants.
Bin Area for Dimity Street
2025-11-14 • No comments • • Johnstone & Villages
The block at 8-20 Dimity Street needs somewhere better to keep their bins. They stay on the street and can end up contaminated with passers by dumping rubbish in them. Can there be a slabbed area or bin shelters created here to take the bins off the street?
Additional Parking Spaces at Park Rd
2025-12-17 • No comments • • Housing Officer • Johnstone & Villages
This green space (which is housing land) could be turned into a car parking spaces. People have been dangerously parking on the corner of Park Rd/Craigston Road and it is impacting visibility for motorists and causing a danger to pedestrians. It would also save the council financially in maintaining the green space. There have been numerous enquiries from residents about this over the years.

I have lived in 7 macdowall street for 13 years and not once has the close been painted or properly cleaned apart from me doing my bit the close looks very untidy and univiting old paint coming off the walls spider webs about the close would be really nice to see a bit of investment being made to clean up our home close area so we aren't embarrassed to have people over plus its very dirty looking and stinks. Tried to add pictures and vidi6but wouldn't let me

The pathways behind numbers 31 to 35 Thornhill, Elderlsie are currently in dissreapear and would benefit from retarmacking. The bin sheds are falling apart and would benefit from an upgrade aswell.
Altpatrick Gardens Patio Area

While there is a patio area for residents of Altpatrick Gardens to enjoy, this requires an upgrady of plants, vegistable garden and new seating area. A shade area would be beneficial such as a retractable awning.
The Oaks
2025-12-04 • No comments • • Housing Officer • Johnstone & Villages
A wide tarred or resin path coming from the double silver gates and leading to the seating area at the communal garden at the Oaks Sheltered housing complex. I think a large path going from the double gates to the seating area would ensure all residents can access the area without going over the grass or residents gardens it would also be wheelchair accessible. The reason i'd like tarred or resin is to stop the issue of moss and weeds growing through and making it unsightly or dangerous for the elderly residents to walk on. I would also like to propose the path already there which comes from the communal lounge to the seating areas be replaced with a wider tarred or resin path for the same issues as already mentioned and the slabs underneath the benches replaced with same material to try and stop the yearly struggle of the ground becoming slippery for the residents. I have used the resources availabe to me to tidy up the paths surrounding the areas however the funding needed for this project would be more than we have available.
