Councillor holds first meeting in bid to find Perth jet ski ‘commonality’

The controversial issue of jet skiers using the River Tay between the bridges in Perth was discussed this week at a meeting co-ordinated by Councillor Heather Stewart.

Attending the meeting were representatives of local services, including Tayside Police, and now Ms Stewart is to seek a meeting with the jet skiers.

She said:”The meeting was very positive and full and frank discussions took place.

”It is now my intention to call a meeting with the representatives of the jet skiers for them to put their case forward, and for us to see if there is any commonality that can be achieved.

”I appreciate that both sides have rights and responsibilities.”
