Community council election results

COMMUNITY council election results for Moray have been confirmed.

Sixteen of Moray’s community councils have been re-established, with Speyside Community Council newly-established, bringing the total to 17.

Two community councils continue to be unestablished – these are Hopeman & Covesea, and Glenlivet.
