What an interesting local council meeting to help residents!
The Cllrs turned up..........hurray............!
Residents rightly immediately felt intimidated as the Cllrs had brought 4 PCSOS. Why? Why would 2 local Cllrs and 2 WDH men need 4 PCSOS to guard them?
Nothing new with the Cllrs and their private police to hand while we all defend our homes with no police for most crimes these days. When was the last time Featherstone had 4 PCSOS on site?
More surprising was the attitude of one WDH men. The other had to be excused as he knew nothing at all about the plans but was introduced as one of the developers. At the end of the day the meeting was to discuss if the plans for Moor Road were to happen. The response ranged from it might happen, it’s going to happen, we are going to consult more, we have consulted enough to do what we want, and The Chesney’s centre does not allow parking on the streets around it. This is not to mention a few choice accusations heard by a number of people accusing a female of being a trouble causer. A normal day in Featherstone development for the worse then!
It was perhaps ironic that the meeting was held in the street near Chesney’s. The surrounding streets were full of parked cars that were not the residents. The WDH man suggested that parking would be helped just as a car pulled up and parked in the residential area. The poor lady who got out of the car was a little taken back by the crowd when asked where she was going. Yep she was off to Chesney’s. A long chat went on. At the end of the day Chesney’s could have more parking but chooses not to and hinder the residents instead.
The story is a long way from over yet....... For the local Cllrs who don’t read this site what you going to do when the Posh Penguin site arm up the back vanishes?
