Community Council Website
Congratulations to the community council on the new website which does Lenzie credit.
The address is http://www.lenziecommunitycouncil.org.uk/
They have an event calendar which will tell us of upcoming events organised by the Council, and other organisations.
We can now see Community Council Minutes online giving us a "blow-by-blow" account of deliberations and they
are also promising to include Topics of special or current interest are covered in individual posts as they arise.
Last but by no means least we have a contact form.
From those who appreciates how difficult it is to run a community website we would urge everyone to not
only take a look at the site, but to actively provide articles and dates for the diary.

Changes to this Website
There are going to be some changes. We think the community council should be the first place of call for the diary and so the dates for the diary that used to appear on each page has been removed. This site has been called the "Lenzie Community Website" but we are considering changing our name. The time and effort needed to produce a monthly update to the website isn't sustainable, so this is going and in its place we are trialling a news service.
