Asset Transfer Request - New Pitsligo Public Toilet Block

What you told us

The charity New Pitsligo Village Projects SCIO submitted an Asset Transfer request to take ownership of New Pitsligo Public Toilets and the surrounding land. The proposal was to refurbish the building and to reopen some of the toilets for public use, under community management. The green space around the block was also to be managed and maintained by the community.

We received one representation, submitted through Engage Aberdeenshire, which was supportive of the request to transfer ownership of the asset. There were no other public representations made.

What we're doing

The Asset Transfer request was considered by the Buchan Area Committee on 16th September 2025 and it was unanimously agreed that the proposal should be supported.

This means ownership of the property can be transferred to New Pitsligo Village Projects SCIO. This process is underway.
