CITY councillors have teamed up with local community groups to support the Save our Venues campaign and reverse Glasgow Life’s decision to shut some facilities permanently. Conservatives, Labour and Green councillors have criticised the move to only re-open 90 venues across the city while facilities including Whiteinch Library and Victoria Park Tennis and Basketball Court remain closed. The tennis and basketball courts are one of several facilities where there is interest in it being taken over under an asset management transfer. Whiteinch Community Council met on Monday night to review their campaign to prevent the library from closing. They are demanding that a full service, comparable to other city libraries is provided from the same B-listed building near Victoria Park.
