Thanks for the long reply – to repeat – do you have a link to show where there has been any other examination of the markets reports and spending?
If a 20 minute job is not worthwhile to a tradesman so they charge and hour and a half to make it more digestible , are you saying Wrexham Council should approve of that, and in turn let Wrexham’s market traders subsidise the subsequent bill? Surely procuring someone who is more amiable to the work could be better?
It is worth noting that the traders themselves are people as you say ‘do not work for the pleasure of it, but like the rest of us, to support themselves and their families’.
After being in the markets this afternoon it appears this article has highlighted a few things with traders questioning figures in the report that is going before the Councillors.
RE: BenjaminM, if you can pop up a link to other reports on the documents and associated repair pricing I would be interested to see how such things are done er, ‘properly’?
If I recall correctly you were equally upset over the ‘iniquitous titillation’ over the Remembrance Day expenses claims again https://www.wrexham.com/forums/topic/expenses-for-councillors-and-offucers
Interestingly at that time you said we ‘will never be in the running for the Paul Foot award for investigative journalism’, and although not at those heights yet this comes at a time where the current edition of Private Eye are running our story on the overcharge over police mobiles, although you do not appear quite so vocal on police matters.

Only delivered one cask so far (the rest is going out next week to the usual cask beer suspects) but it will be on in the Royal Oak on the High Street from tonight.[/quote]
Assuming its not gone – will nip in tomorrow!

Someone earlier said something along the lines of ‘have you seen that spoof beer posted up?’
Pointed out it is actually proper! Any pointers where to tell people to get a pint?! :)
There is further information today put out by the BBC that says the impact could be as high as £1.1bn and around 1,900 jobs in the overall package and associated knock on benefits.
Not bad!
Cant answer the former but on the latter the PDF is as supplied by the Council, and does have clickable links in it depending on how your device handles PDF’s and probably related security settings etc.
Alan: I’m not driving a Mini-Metro, I’m not driving a Mini-Metro, I’m not driving a Mini-Metro.
Lynn: No, no, no, it’s different. It’s called a Rover Metro now.
Alan: They’ve rebadged it, you fool!Coogan does deliver it better :)
It is at the bottom of the agenda as an update report – but not currently linked up anywhere online.
Hopefully that gets changed and it goes officially into the public domain!
That FOI has been referenced to me twice in two days – along with earlier in the week so it appears people are looking at such things.
Two things were mentioned, one the make up of the committee looking at consultation responses and the other the ‘business plan’ element of the document.
There is a stated 3 year ‘costed plan’ of arts activity, which if the parking and similar are to be a revenue stream means there could be figures out there but not yet public?
Someone also mentioned that potential funders (lottery etc) have had letters written to them expressing a contrary view to the project, although I have not had sight of those.
