Submission Documents: By Councillor Susan Aitken:- "Council agrees that George Square is Glasgow's most important open civic space and is loved and valued by residents of and visitors to the city alike. Council believes that George Square should be accessible to members of the public throughout the year and should be maintained and cared for in a manner that befits its status. Council believes, however, that George Square has been poorly served by recent administrations, and that its current state of maintenance and repair is wholly unacceptable for a public space of such importance. Council further believes that the large number of events that are allowed to take place in George Square have not only contributed to its physical deterioration, but also regularly prevent citizens and visitors from gaining access to all or part of the Square, and that an alternative city centre space should be identified as a main location for such events. Council calls on the Leader to take urgent action to bring forward a comprehensive plan for a future George Square that can be fully accessed and enjoyed by the public, and for its restoration to a condition that will once again be a source of pride to Glasgow."
