OCHDA was established in 2019 to explore the possible development of a Trust Port for Oban Bay, taking responsibility for the currently-unmanaged areas in the Bay. A Trust Port is a fully independent commercial organisation, governed by Statute, intended to manage and maintain a defined Harbour area safely and efficiently, promoting longer-term development with community interests at heart.
Since 2022 OCHDA had offered advice to Argyll & Bute Council following their decision not to support the Trust Port project but to develop a Council-run ‘Municipal Port’ for Oban. This was rejected and OCHDA is no longer trying to assist the Council in the establishment of the new Harbour Authority but is considering the best way forward for Oban.
Membership of OCHDA is open to anyone with an interest in the future of Oban Harbour. Send us a message using the form below for more
