    Transportuser, rather than ranting here, why not do something productive and ask the Council the question?

    Nen, I nod in agreement! Problem is that it is going to get worse (I would love to add “before it gets better” but hand on heart cannot)

    PS I wonder if the quoted resident was on benefits and having their rent and Council Tax Paid? Cake and eating it springs to mind!

    [quote quote=110840]It’s disgusting that volunteers have to do things that is a basic requirement of the Council – I.e. Keeping our town clean. I hope we’re getting a reduction in our Council tax accordingly.

    And they can’t say they’ve got no money given they are squandering thousands on posh new kitchens and bathrooms for council tenants!

    I also think it’s wrong that we have to rely on charity for end-of-life care (I.e. Nightingale House) – surely dignity at the end of our life should be provided for by the State.

    Point 1. – The Council has no money so why not let Andrew, Ian and their lot help out! Its not as if they are doing it for any other reason apart from their love of the Town.
    Point 2. – Is not squandering its a statutory requirement as the Welsh Housing Quality Standard requires all social landlords (like Wrexham Council) to improve their housing stock to an acceptable level by 2020.
    Point 3. – Agreed! What do we pay our NI Contributions for? They should support us in life and death. Not quite sure why you are making this point here though ………

    My suggestion of placing the Arts Hub on the site was ignored as the invisible covenant on the site restricts the use of the land for educational purposes only ………… but think of all the parking for the 10000s that will be using the Arts Hub every week!

    What’s wrong with Donald Trump?
    I wish Carwyn Jones would listen to me and build a wall to stop the English coming in.

    As for holidays and attendance … so what, they all work hard so I don’t see any harm in skiving now and again!

    Jealousy is the tribute mediocrity pays to genius.

    Face it, if you could vote yourself a nice pay rise you would! Screw saving £45,000,0000 and fairness, its do as I say, not as I do!

    I applaud them for following human nature and feathering their own nests.

    [quote quote=108544]Are we getting value for money from the new enlarged Executive Board? Having watched a number of webcast meetings , there is no obvious difference , the meetings still appear staged and most important votes are unanimous. The extra two members cost in the region of £63,000, what purpose do they serve ?

    [/quote]

    Executive – Relating to or having the power to put plans or actions into effect (think about the savings they will make on the Groves!)

    And this is why they get Executive pay!
    We certainly get Value For Money, no qualms about that.
