Dumfries flooding 'masterplan' debate
A council meeting is being held to discuss the future of flood defences for Dumfries Whitesands.
Six months to wait till details emerge
Planners have until September to come up with the details of the Whitesands Masterplan in Dumfries.
After that councillors will ask the Scottish Government to provide some of the £4 million it will cost to build the flood defences and redesign the Whitesands with green spaces and pedestrian areas.
