The Dumfries Town Board (DTB) is a strategic community-led initiative focused on the economic regeneration, infrastructure development, and long-term sustainability of Dumfries. The board brings together business leaders, local authorities, and key stakeholders with the aim of driving forward projects that support the revitalisation of the town centre and surrounding areas.
With a commitment to collaboration, innovation, and investment, the Dumfries Town Board will work closely with local businesses, property owners, and government bodies to ensure that funding and development opportunities are maximised for the benefit of the community. A core function of the board is managing and overseeing the £20 million secured through the UK Government’s Levelling Up Fund, ensuring that it is effectively allocated to projects that enhance transport & connectivity, safety & security, and high street regeneration.
Chaired by Kenny Bowie, the board operates with a strong focus on community engagement and economic resilience, aiming to create a thriving, modern, and sustainable Dumfries. By prioritising local employment, infrastructure improvements, and business growth, the Dumfries Town Board will be at the forefront of transforming the town into a dynamic and prosperous hub for residents, businesses, and visitors alike.
