Summer into autumn: The summer Fair and our RNLI beach lifeguards have left until next year. The children and young folk are back at school. We all gear up for autumn days and some of us are already thinking of Christmas! Yes, we are in the midst of our Christmas lights planning - we're buying 8 new festive motifs for the lampposts along Kinghorn Road on the Links side and will be paying Fife Council to put up the new connectors for us. Many community groups are making their autumn and winter plans. Remember we will be choosing Community Award winners for 2026 at the end of the year so maybe give this some consideration now? With so many worthy folk and groups to nominate it might be a hard choice. We are delighted to see our Burgh Buzz back with its August edition and the next edition will be November. If you are planning winter events, remember to let the Buzz editor have your information by the October deadline.

Public Community Council Meetings: These are held every 3rd Tuesday of the month (except July when there is no meeting). We are running hybrid meetings using Zoom. If you are unable to attend our meeting in person and would like to join by Zoom, please contact us for the Zoom link - you can do so by emailing our Secretary. Meetings are usually held in the old Council Chamber of Burntisland Burgh Chambers in the HIgh Street, next to the Library.

The meeting draft agendas are posted on this website during the week prior to the meeting. (See tab on the right of this page to download an agenda.) If you would like a topic added to the agenda please use the 'contact us' box. You can also raise a topic at the start of the meeting but it will depend on time constraints if it can be included at that meeting. The meeting draft Minutes are posted on this website usually by the Tuesday following the meeting (see Minutes page on this website to access all recent minutes.) 

Fife Council website: The Fife Council website https://www.fife.gov.uk/ has a lot of information and easy to use features for members of the public to report issues that don’t require the intervention of a Councillor or a BCC member.
