MAIN ISSUES AND CHALLENGES
Sustaining involvement of local community reps in the LCPP process – needs to be relevant
Lack of progress with action around all themes
Maintaining support to existing community structures – within the context of further budget cuts
Encouraging wider community to become involved in community matters – team discussions around strengthening local democracy
Ensuring continued allocation of Dundee Partnership Funds
