We have commented before about how the
efforts of NICE and their relationship with the Highland Council etc, can seem somewhat
esoteric to a lot of people. The future of the town centre isn’t high on a lot
of folks priorities anymore, it is something going on in the background again
and this observer suspects that even many of the 1050 that have so far signed
on the dotted line with NICE will not feel directly involved.
If, however, you want a quick refresher
course then Iain Bain offers his usual enlightened analysis in this week’s
Nairnshire Telegraph. It is worth spending the five minutes or so that it will
take to digest his few paragraphs on page 10 of this week’s edition. It’s good
stuff but does the venerable custodian of the Leopold Street Thunder risk being
labelled a heretic by the NICE folk in the light of the following suggestion:
“Another solution might be to preserve
public toilets which a town centre requires, raze the bulk of the buildings and
incorporate them into the carparking that central Nairn really needs.”

Nope, keep that perfectly servicable building, people are always too quick to pull things down without any alternative plan. KEEP IT, USE IT!
I'd go with flatten it and make it part of the carpark, excellent idea from Mr Bain
