Overview

Consultation is a key aspect to gain consensus for the proposed options and the successful delivery of a future flood scheme. As such the project team will engage with key stakeholders at various periods and will continue to engage with stakeholders and the public throughout any scheme development.

The following consultation events have been held:

• Public consultation meeting #1 to present the project and initial flood maps (Dec 2018).

Upcoming consultation events

Below is a list of upcoming consultation events. Further details will be provided nearer the time.

• Public consultation meeting #2 September 2019

Further consultation and stakeholder groups are likely to be initiated, particularly when a preferred scheme has been identified and Council decisions have been made and agreed with SEPA to take forward a Flood Protection Scheme. At this point, more detail on the design of flood defences is required and consultation on specific aspects will be undertaken. Further information on stakeholder groups will be published on this web-site in in due course.
