We at Granton & District Community Council positively support any kind of approach which will lead towards Sustainable Development of the whole waterfront community as long as voice of the local people will be at the core.

It is also essential to make any economic benefit by preserving local nature and environment for the future generation.

Please take part in the process and make Granton waterfront a great place to live/visit.

Kind regards
