Common Good Fund
It is not possible to determine whether Dunfermline has a Common Good Fund since the Annual Accounts of Fife Council consolidate financial information from all 25 former burghs in one Statement and hence it is not possible to determine the precise balance of the Dunfermline Common Good Fund
My Commentary
Fife Council does not have a very good grasp of what Common Good assets are held by Dunfermline and other burghs. In the words of their Estates Department,
"The attached list provides details of the location and description of Common Good land from the Financial Records passed to the Council from the former Burghs and District Councils. The recorded description is not always helpful and an exercise is in hand to improve this aspect. The extent of the land is not recorded because as advised above due to the vague description in the titles this is not always shown."
