oh this is a good one. might even be worth a reply to him. the regeneration of Featherstone has been held back for the last 5 years by his mates. grid lock roads blame john, he was given an option on plate and turned his back.
the regeneration of Featherstone is as questionable as a 9 bob note. take a look at this reply from WMDC,
thanks ******
I have taken this up with the Major Projects team in Regeneration and they have responded by saying that they will ensure that the wording in the implementation framework Re Chesney’s/ Plaza and Post Office Rd developments is appropriate, eg Date to be determined , subject to further public consultation. Hopefully this should be OK.

Subject: masterplan
hi Bob,
during the meeting today the master plan was brought up. this subject was raised at the last meeting where you gave me the first copy of the document. since then I have studied the document and I questioned the plan as it was not the correct plan. I explained that Denise Jefferies had stated at the last public open meeting that the 2 items, the precinct and the end of post office road were to be removed due to public and committee disapproval. I have attached the letter from Denise that states what the public and steering committee were told. I would be grateful if the person responsible for the mistake be found and what actions WMDC are going to take to rectify the problem. I am sure you understand the concern the residents and business's that will be demolished are feeling.
my personal view is that some one has told an untruth for the purpose of development. development is often led by money and not people as many locals have seen the Girnhill estate.
I look forward to the reply as so do the residents concerned.
regards

well john looks like you can start by saving another set of peoples homes or even getting off your ass and come to talk to us.
