Dumfries and Galloway Council are the statutory body that oversees the running of the Royal Burgh of Annan Community Council.
The town is well represented by its twelve elected members, all resident in different areas of the town.
As well as working with elected members and officers of Dumfries and Galloway Council to benefit the town, the Community Council is actively involved in many community activities. These include; organising the annual Garden Competition, the Christmas Window Dressing Competion, the Annan Young Citizen of the Year award, planting and tending the flowers at the railway station, helping with the towns Christmas lights and decorations, grit bin coordination, responsibility for Annan.org.uk web site and Remembrance Sunday commemorations.
We have representation on local committees, including the Royal Burgh Common Good Fund and The Federation of Community Councils for Annandale and Eskdale. We are also consulted on issues affecting the town like planning applications and economic regeneration.
The Community Council meets on the second Monday of each month in St Andrews Social Club [see map below] at 7pm. For further information or if you have a query, come along to our next meeting - all are welcome!
