Police Scotland wants your views on moving its Oban station.
The force says it anticipates only "minimal community impact" if the proposal to move the office approximately one mile from its current site eventually goes ahead.
Oban’s Albany Street station is on a list of 26 police buildings currently being consulted on as part of a shift to better meet the demands of 21st century policing.

Plans also include closing Dalmally Police Office, leaving the area to be covered by resources from Oban.
The consultations comes with a pledge from Chief Superintendent for Argyll and West Dunbartonshire Police Division Lynn Ratcliff that the public will still receive the "same level of high service" if proposals go ahead.
In 2019, Oban Police Office was branded the worst in Scotland after an inspection of police buildings by the Scottish Police Federation (SPF). At the time, the SPF described conditions there as "horrific" and unfit for human habitation similar to that supplied by "slum landlords."
The Oban station consultation ends on February 14. There is no address mentioned in the consultation survey of where the Oban station would move to.
Chief Supt Ratcliff said: “I realise how important access to policing services is to local communities and how a physical police presence can bring reassurance and confidence to communities.
“If our proposals go ahead, our officers will continue to be active, visible and accessible and the public will receive the same high level of service from officers within their local area."
And added: "I understand and I am sensitive to community concerns around changes involving police buildings however our policing service is not defined by our buildings, but by our actions within the communities we serve and work with."
Information on the consultation said advances in digital technology meant officers were no longer tied to working from police buildings and that they could now spend the majority of their time out in communities dealing with calls and helping the public.
Chief Supt Ratcliff said: "We are absolutely committed to listening to the wider views so we can shape the delivery of policing within Argyll and Bute.”
