Losing Shepway's Heritage, one lift at a time

The agenda of Shepway Council's cabinet meeting on 18th March is now available online - but possibly the most controversial part of it is to remain secret. Item 16 on the agenda (available at http://www.shepway.gov.uk/webapp/service/query/cads/doc/cabinet/Agendas/acabt20090318.doc?download=download) lists the item as "Leas Lift Lease Termination". Apparently its supporting report (C/08/106) sets out the background of the Leas Lift lease and the proposals for its termination - but members of the public, are not allowed to see that report, or even listen to the debate at the meeting if they wish.

Cardboard Cut Outs

A lull in Council meetings provides an opportunity to mention other aspects of a Councillors' duty. I can only speak for my Ward colleagues, Councillors Susette and Monroe Palmer but I am sure other Councillors are, also, like us constantly in touch with residents about a whole range of local issues.
