Credit crunch forces consortium to withdraw tender proposals

The private consortium which was planning a major upgrade of Hazlehead Golf Course has decided not to go ahead with its proposals.

The MacKenzie Club Ltd has informed Aberdeen City Council that it has opted not to proceed because it has been unable to attract external investors to provide the financial backing for the proposed redevelopment.

TMC has told the council that the global economic downturn has deterred potential investors from financing the proposed hotel and golfing lodge developments, which were essential to make the scheme financially viable.

Food waste collection service launched

Aberdeen City Council's food waste collection service has been launched.

The launch coincided with the opening of Keenan Recycling's innovative new facility in New Deer, where the food waste will be treated and turned into compost. The first delivery of food waste from the city will be delivered to the recycling plant today.
