EMERGENCY PLANNING

One of the most important items on the agenda at tomorrow night's meeting of Brigg Town Council's policy committee will be to fix a new date for, and determine the format of, a meeting with voluntary organisations, businesses, and other potential partners to progress the creation of a Brigg Emergency Plan.
The plan will be vitally important if the town suffers flooding or similar unfortunate events.
The meeting - open to the public - will be in the Angel Suite Lounge (7.30pm).

Flooding??? In Wrawby we've built a lifeboat station!!!

If Climate Change carries on at the same rate, it'll be Wrawby-by-Sea in 2053.

Just for interest - some guy was surveying Tesco's car-park with a special device today - said that Tesco wanted a 3D image of the car-park????
Asked him what the ground height was just to the left of main entrance.....3.989m - about 13feet amsl. From that point the ground runs downs a fairly noticeable gradient to the river bank..and then there's a 1m drop into the Ancholme....so it seems that there's only about 1.5m fall from Brigg to the sluice at South Ferriby.....and the Ancholme can only be lowered when the tide is on the ebb. Not much of a safety margin, eh!

The same guy - re Tuesday's posting - was seen wandering about Barnard Ave with his special 3D device on Wednesday pm.

I wonder why Tesco want a 3D projection of the store and environs!!

Thursday: same guy seem meandering half-way down Ash Grove - funny - thought he originally said he making a 3D representation of Tesco's carpark. Perhaps we'll all become holograms!!
