As I have on a number of occasions inforned that the Bower Tow Path is actually ‘owned’ by 4 (four) different organisations (maybe 5) – and some of it FDC have taken on resposibility for and when requested (as I do) cut a small swathe along about 60%,
(They have sent me a map), the other 40% then becomes difficult both in contacting and then requesting work to be done. I am on the case….
With the somewhat sudden early retirement of ex Cllr Kay Mayor, there are now (two) vacancies for South Mary’s South (District)/St Andrews (Whittlesey Town)
I am the other elected Ward Councillor for Whittlesey South (District)/South Ward (Whittlesey South) until the next elections (if I last that long!).
I understand Two Independents will put up for the vacant seat(s) Martin Curtis (Ex Councillor) for the Fenland District seat and Peter Bibb for the Whittlesey Town Council seat.
Elections probably to be held on July 04th.
Naturally I am supporting both of the candidates….
So at yesterdays Coates Village Fete, Kay and Martin
had a photo opportunity – to which I asked the question –
‘You will be supporting this candidate then’ –
To which Kay replied No comment!
Generally we receive good clean water to drink and bathe, however getting rid of our waste is a different story, we all pay more to discharge our water than receiving it.
Thousands of times a year Water Companies discharge waste and effluent into our rivers and sea, they do not always inform the ‘Environment Agency’
A water company is poised to be sentenced after being convicted of not complying with a requirement to provide records, the Environment Agency has said.
Anglian Water was found guilty by a district judge following a trial at Peterborough Magistrates’ Court, agency officials said.
Officials said the agency brought the case against Anglian Water following a wider investigation into “potential non-compliance” with environmental permit conditions.
An Anglian Water spokeswoman said the company had been found “not guilty” on “two counts of failing to provide data”.
