Council no longer has representative community body in Ferguslie Park'

Paisley Daily Express

|

August 15, 2025

Ferguslie Community Council has fallen because of a lack of members after four people-including the group's chair-quit earlier this year.

- JACK THOMSON, LOCAL DEMOCRACY REPORTER

The resignations left the body with fewer than the minimum threshold of seven and meant an interim election would be required if it was to continue.

However, the council has said it wrote to those remaining on two occasions, asking if they wanted this to be facilitated, but received no response.

Terry McTernan, who left after taking aim at the local authority and its administration on social media, said: "I think it is a big loss in the sense that the council no longer has an actual truly representative community body in order to continue that engagement.

"Ferguslie Park, in terms of the services that are delivered by local people themselves - the lunch club, the market, etc; they will continue to go on.
