QUESTION TIME

Brigg Town Council will hold its monthly meeting on Monday (June 28) in the Angel Suite (7.30pm). The usual 15-minute "Public Question Time" session has been pencilled in at the start for local people to go along and raise issues, if they wish.
Main item of interest will be the Town Council's official response to North Lincolnshire planners' draft Development Framework Core Strategy. Cutting through the jargon, that's the blueprint for future development (where house-building will be permitted). This is the final consultation on a very important topic, and York Road "field" is still on the list. We'll have to wait and see whether North Lincolnshire planners keep it in the final blueprint, or remove it.
Monday's meeting will also see town councillors considering the request from Brigg District Lions for financial support to resurrect the annual bonfire alongside the firework display. The Town Council classes this as a "major event" in its category for grant aid.

  1. .....York Road is controversial.... folks could be on short fuse and sparks could fly||

    I'm in Greenwich at the mo' and buildings are going up everyhwhere....Canary Wharf - the home of UK's tallest buildings is being developed and in 18 months time 2 new buildings will be taller than the existing.....the Maritime Museum is being revamped (Greenwich Park is also going to be used as the equestrian centre in 2012) and just the other side of the Blackwall Tunnel in Stretford, the Olympic village and stadia are taking shape..and the Cutty Sark is being refurbished after the fire......meanwhile in North Lincs the Immingham Port development reains in the balance. No wonder for every 10 jobs created in London and the SE, only 1 job is created elsewhere. Something wrong somewhere!
    Now, which way should I go? East or West?
    Anyway, if you have the time, Greenwich is well worth a visit...get on a boat at Westminster....half-price return fare (£5.25p) for folks with a national bus pass..Maritime Museum free and get cheap sarnies and drink from the Tesco Express opposite Big Ben.
