Cambusbarron Community Council
Community councils have a duty under statute to represent the views of their local community. It is vital therefore, that they reflect the broad spectrum of opinion and interests of all sections of the community.
Cambusbarron Community Council is an elected body of local people that represent the views of the community to Stirling Council, business and other groups. Meetings are usually held monthly on the 3rd Tuesday of the month (see Meeting Dates) and are held within the community centre at 7pm.
Community Councils were set up with Local Government reorganisation in 1973. Their general purpose, as defined in the Local Government (Scotland) Act 1973 and in the Local Government etc (Scotland) Act 1994, is: “to ascertain, co-ordinate and express to the local authorities for its area and to public authorities the views of the community which it represents in relation to matters for which those authorities are responsible” and.. “to take such action in the interests of that community as appears to it to be expedient and practicable”
This gives a great deal of scope to community councils to get involved in a variety of local issues: to develop local projects and activities (on their own or with others), and to represent community opinion to local authorities and public bodies.
Further information, including the Model Constitution and the Model Code of Conduct, can be found on the community councils page of the Stirling Council website.
