Oh dear, oh dear, oh dear.
Looks like the info was wrong!
How a Labour Cllr’s agreement to begin the demise of the Girnhill Estate will now finally slap him in the face. Due to the continued persistence of WMDC not to pay a fair price for property and by applying for a CPO order to kick out the remaining residents on the estate, a whole can of worms has now publicly opened. We the public just pay the bill for this madness.
The residents in defense of the CPO threat have provided their information to the Secretary of State. The facts over the last 13 years have provided enough significant evidence that the Secretary of state has not agreed with WMDC and has now called a public enquiry. The purpose of the enquiry is to gather further evidence and hear from anyone involved or with knowledge of the events.
The enquiry will be held in Wakefield, probably somewhere like the Cedar Court hotel. WMDC will be paying the bill for this and all the legal teams involved. What a huge waste of public money. Why don’t WMDC not just give in and pay the fair price to the last 3 residents and still have money left over compared to the legal costs about to be inquired.
What ever your view its now time to be heard. If you have been a resident at some point or are someone associated with the Girnhill Estate you will be able now to stand up and have your say. All those years of torment are now about to become very public. Shortly there will be public advertisements showing details of the enquiry.
This is going to be very interesting……………
