The Voice of Spalding and South Holland
Prior to re-electing our current councillors or the prospective candidates, I wonder how many will be willing to enlighten us to their previous professional, commercial, business experience and achievements?
Perhaps they could also inform us why they should be elected when they appear to have no input/veto on local schemes imposed by Lincolnshire County Council.
Abandon hope if we are detailed off to be ruled by Lincoln (bike racks, short time street parking and chaos at the tip come to mind).
There appears more rubbish in the town than at the tip.
Have they tried to get a convenient appointment?
Even with social distancing, what is wrong/difficult with one visit putting your rubbish in the appropriate skip? There seems to be enough mattresses laying around Spalding to furnish a hospital ward.
How, despite asking local opinions (totally ignored), does the council expect to increase town visitors with the above rules and then increasing our car park charges?
They have also decimated the market traders who had a vibrant town centre market – now hard pushed to get six stalls. Are closure plans on the agenda? (Ed – car park charges and markets are district council matters.)
People are not going to visit to see any amount of statues or fancy paint jobs.
Clean up the town, give locals pride in where they live, educate the young to clear up after themselves, then we might get investment into town with viable shops.
I am sorry but the current showing gives me no confidence in their ability or competence to organise a tea party for a dozen rabbits in an acre of lettuce.
As a genuine ‘Pigeonender’ I am disgusted as to how the town has been allowed to deteriorate.
