Questions were raised on how the work on each community centre was progressing by a Canal ward councillor at yesterday's full council meeting

Plans to refurbish or redevelop three community centres in Glasgow are ongoing as the city council continues its work to bring each project back within its budget.

Our investigations to date have only dealt with the immediate apparent issues and have identified works required to the roof, and dealing with asbestos issues, replacement boilers and some ceiling and lighting works. “Procurement of appropriate surveyors by GCC is being discussed to progress the full survey therefore at this point we don’t have timescales on any completion.”

“Regrettably whenever the plans for the new building were sent out for tender, the tender returned at a much higher cost than the available funding.
