A
A
A
A
A
A
Slade
I'm
leader
of
BCP
Council,
it's
lovely
to
see
so
many
people
saying
hi
to
us
already
this
morning,
I
I'm
going
to
answer
as
many
questions
as
I
can
today.
We've
had
quite
a
few
submitted
already,
but
we
do
only
have
half
an
hour.
I
have
to
go
on
to
do
a
media
interview
in
a
little
while
so
I
have
to
cut
it
tight
and
I'm
also
going
to
try
and
answer
some
questions
that
are
coming
in
as
we
go
so
I'll
do
best.
A
I
can
anything
we
can't
cover
the
comms
team
will
do
their
best
to
come
back
and
cover
them
for
you
in
later
on
today.
So
if
we
go
on
to
my
first
question,
which
was
about
last
weekend
from
Simon,
should
Saturday
have
been
treated
like
an
August
bank
holiday
as
it
was
the
busiest
day
of
the
year,
it
was
actually
the
busiest
day
that
we've
seen
this
year
across
our
beaches.
Of
course,
we
know
when
bank
holidays
are
coming,
we
can
plan
for
them.
We
can
create
the
staff
for
them.
A
The
reality
is
that
we
just
had
the
Air
Festival
previous
to
that
we
just
had
the
bank
holiday
rubbish
weather,
but
obviously
people
Staffing
commitments
were
already
in
place
and
September
is
not
high
season.
So
the
team
worked
really
hard
with
about
four
days
notice:
to
increase
the
Staffing
levels.
Our
and
Alive
were
fantastic,
managed
to
stand
back
up,
eight
of
their
towers
and
the
local
life-serving
clubs
were
brilliant
as
well.
We
got
extra
staff
in
place
for
parking
management
over
750
parking.
Fines
give
us
an
awful
parking.
A
Just
to
let
you
know,
I
did
have
a
meeting
alongside
collar
burns,
with
a
minister
on
Tuesday
to
try
and
get
some
movement
on
letting
us
have
higher
parking
fines,
because
fundamentally
there
are
people
who
are
now
not
even
bothering
to
go
in
a
car
park,
they're
just
leaving
their
car
and
taking
a
risk,
and
that's
disgusting.
The
cost
to
the
Council
of
Towing,
someone's
car
is
about
10
times
the
amount
that
we
recover.
So
you
know
that's
not
a
practical
solution
for
us.
A
We
need
to
be
able
to
increase
the
fines
and
we're
working
really
hard
to
do
that,
and
I
also
just
want
to
pay
tribute
to
the
cleansing
staff,
the
amount
of
litter
that
people
were
leaving
on
the
beach,
not
okay,
and
they
were
out
there
five
o'clock
Sunday
morning
trying
to
make
it
lovely
again.
So
you
know
huge
respect
to
the
staff.
A
We
can't
predict
great
weather.
We
just
had
a
few
days
notice,
so
the
team
did
the
best
that
they
absolutely
could
so.
Moving
on
to
a
question
about
the
air
show
so
interesting
question
from
Michael
an
apologies.
My
dog
has
just
come
back
from
his
walk.
So
if
you
see
somebody
jumping
up
it's
my
dog,
so
why
why
I've
always
been
against
the
air?
Show
I
haven't
been
against
the
air,
show
I'm,
not
against
the
air,
show.
A
As
we
confirmed
last
night,
the
estimated
net
cost
for
the
Air
Festival
to
the
council.
Taxpayer
is
479
000
pounds
now
there
is
a
draft
figure
and
we're
waiting
for
all
the
last
Bills
to
come
in,
but
the
council
spends
900
000
pounds
on
putting
the
Air
Festival
on
it
receives
so
much
more
it's
around
about
500
000
pounds
in
income.
All
those
figures
are
going
into
public
domain
in
a
cabinet
report
next
month,
which
means
that
the
net
cost
is
somewhere
between
four
and
five
hundred
thousand
pounds.
A
I
personally
believe
that
those
people
who
make
the
most
money
from
it
should
be
making
a
contribution
to
it.
We've
been
really
clear
about
that.
That's
why
we
started
a
working
group,
we're
asking
people
from
the
hospitality
industry,
the
events
industry,
the
council
teams,
the
Red
Arrows
Association
of
Bournemouth.
All
of
those
people
to
work
with
us
find
a
way
to
make
it
to
make
it
viable.
Ultimately,
if
it's
you
know,
if
it's
not
financially
viable,
we
can't
run
it.
A
So
I
have
no
problem
with
the
Air
Festival
I've
taken
my
children
there
ever
since
they
were
tiny.
So
that
is
simply
not
true.
We
have
a
44
million
pound
shortfall
in
the
finances
next
year.
The
sort
of
decisions
we're
going
to
have
to
make
in
terms
of
cutting
services
are
horrible,
I
don't
want
to
be
making
any
of
them,
and
it's
difficult
for
me
to
justify
spending
money
on
that
as
popular
as
it
might
be.
A
If
we're
unable
to
do
services
for
really
vulnerable
people,
the
carbon
footprint
of
the
air
show
just
a
comment
there
from
Top
status
with
carbon
footprint.
Actually,
the
vast
vast
majority
of
that
is
people
traveling
to
the
Air
Festival,
mainly
in
their
cars.
The
cost
of
the
actual
flying
itself
in
terms
of
carbon
is
actually
very,
very
small
and
talking
to
the
Red
Arrows
Pilots.
Many
of
those
are
now
going
to
sustainable
fuels.
A
The
rules
that
we
have
to
follow
is
that
anywhere,
where
we
have
ashes
or
remains
interred,
has
to
remain
protected
and
maintained
for
about
70
years
after
the
last
internment.
That
means
that
site
isn't
going
to
be
used
for
anything
else.
The
current
situation
is
that
when
the
center
was
closed
down,
it
hadn't
been
maintained.
A
For
many
many
years
under
previous
councils
and
that's
a
failure
of
previous
councils-
and
we
can't
change
that,
but
the
reality
is
that
it
was
going
to
cost
2
million
pounds
to
put
a
new
crematers
into
that
crematorium
to
go
for
electric
cremator,
so
they're
better
for
the
environment,
but
the
size
of
electric
chromators
at
the
moment
are
so
large
that
there'll
be
Major
Works
needed
to
the
building
back
surveys,
environmental
issues,
so
two
million
pound
cost
and
around
about
18
months
to
two
years.
To
actually
do
it.
A
We
don't
have
two
million
pounds,
so
we've
just
thought
about
44
million
shortfall.
If
we
use
two
million
pounds
of
our
community
infrastructure
Levy.
That
would
mean
no
money
for
things
like
Parks
playgrounds,
other
other
infrastructure
that
we
want
to
do
in
our
communities
when
actually
the
capacity
of
the
Bournemouth
crematorium
is
currently
about
50.
And
that's
because
we've
got
the
crematorium
in
lichit
and
another
one
in
new
Milton.
A
So
right
now
we
would
have
to
borrow
at
the
cost
of
borrowing
would
be
would
mean
that
we'd
lose
300
000
pounds
a
year,
so
go
back
to
where
we
started.
Can
we
justify
putting
a
new
crematorium
in
right
now
at
a
cost
of
either
300
000
pounds
a
year
or
a
fairly
low
annual
cost,
but
lose
all
of
the
capital
that
we
want
to
spend
on
other
things
for
people
who
live
here
and
right
now,
the
decision
is
that
it
there
isn't
a
justification
of
it.
A
What
we
want
to
do
is
we
want
to
work
with
the
funeral
industry,
we're
talking
to
the
faith
groups
and
we're
talking
to
the
local
funeral
companies
to
see
whether
they
want
to
partner
with
us
whether
there's
a
third
sector
solution,
whether
we
might
even
say
you
know
what
we
want
a
crematorium
there,
but
it's
not
publicly
funded
so
we're.
Looking
at
all
of
those
options,
Adam's
asked
if
I've
got
any
positive
news:
oh
Adam
I'm!
So
sorry
the
world
is
a
bit
miserable,
isn't
it
the
weather
is
sunny-ish.
A
You
know,
we've
got
the
announcement
of
the
Coast
with
the
most
finalists
tonight,
so
so
there'll
be
some
businesses
getting
some
great
news.
Two
rivers
meet
one
the
best
community
provider
of
leisure,
Services,
I
think
this
week,
so
good
news
for
them.
They've
won
an
award.
We've
been
shortlisted
for
some
awards
up
in
London
on
the
barrel
bike
scheme,
so
yeah.
There
are
lots
of
really
good
bits
of
news,
but
unfortunately
people
are
wanting
to
know
what's
happening
about
some
of
the
negative
stuff.
A
A
couple
of
people
have
commented
about
ridiculous
parking
charges.
You
know
what
parking
charges
in
Bournemouth
are
not
dissimilar
to
Winchester
Brighton
bath.
Other
places
are
charging
that
that
is
the
going
rate
for
parking
I'm.
Sorry,
that's
what
it
is:
yeah
they're
not
going
to
go
down,
but
you're
right
parking.
Fines
need
to
be
higher.
That's
where
we're
going.
Paul
Andrews
has
asked
about
the
two
pound
bus
scheme
coming
to
the
end
it
has.
It
has
been
the
best
thing
totally
agree
with
you.
A
What
I
would
say
is
that
coming
to
an
end
in
October
is
going
to
2
pound
50,
which
is
still
a
pretty
good
deal
for
some
of
the
very
long
bus
rides.
You
can
go
all
the
way
to
Salisbury
for
two
pounds,
all
the
way
to
swanage
Fantastic.
If
the
bus
price
is
less
than
two
pound
fifty,
then
it
will.
It's
capped
at
two
pound.
Fifty
is
there
a
chance?
The
council
could
collaborate,
44
million
pounds
Paul.
A
If
we
didn't
have
a
44
million
pound
shortfall,
I
would
be
saying
yes,
I
love
bus
travel,
but
it's
just
right
now,
not
not
feasible.
I
want
to
see
the
government
take
this
on
longer
and
they
have
committed
to
two
pound
fifty,
which
is
a
start.
Moving
on
to
the
next
question.
I've
got
here
about
planning,
so
Mick
has
asked
no
Mick.
No,
that
all
right,
I'll
answer
that
question
about
the
twin
sales
Bridge
from
Mick.
A
When
will
development
for
the
land
of
the
west
of
twin
sales
Bridge
continue
to
installed
for
years
it
has
been
stalled
for
years.
What
you
might
have
seen
last
night
is:
we've
now
published
our
proposals
to
close
future
places.
Future
places
have
had
the
site
for
the
last
couple
of
years,
since
we
made
the
decision
in
2020
to
buy
the
site
back,
I've
been
hugely
disappointed
about
why
it's
taken
three
years
with
no
movement.
I
am
aware
lots
of
stuff's
been
going
on
in
terms
of
the
remediation
of
the
site.
A
Obviously
it
was
a
power
station.
So
there's
lots
of
work
that
has
to
go
on
underground
Etc,
but
the
good
news
is.
We
are
moving
ahead
with
regeneration
holes.
Bay
is
our
number
one
site
to
move
on.
There
are
some
proposals
to
start
developing
the
early
parts
of
the
site
that
don't
have
any
contamination,
and
so
hopefully
that
will
make
some
very
quick
progress.
Paul
is
really
a
a
positive
news
story
right
now
you
want
some
more
positive
News
Adam.
A
The
dolphin
Center
is
doing
so
well
with
all
its
New
Uses,
but
we
know
that
there's
a
lot
more
money
that
we
can
put
into
Paul
in
terms
of
getting
more
housing
in
the
middle
of
Paul
so
that
it
can
drive
the
businesses
there.
So
you
know
hold
fire
with
the
the
worries
about
holes.
Bay
I'm,
hoping
that
in
the
next
few
few
months,
we'll
have
some
really
positive
news
there.
A
So
on
to
the
next
question,
I
think,
which
is
finances,
I,
think
I,
don't
know
the
name
of
the
person.
That's
asked
the
next
question.
Thank
you,
Scotty
dog.
That's
why
I
don't
have
a
name
Scotty
dog137,
how
close
is
BCP
to
declaring
section
114.
So
Aces
set
Ure
114
notice
is
effectively
a
bankruptcy
notice
for
councils.
A
The
reality
is
that,
over
the
last
three
years,
our
reserves
have
been
drawn
right.
The
way
down
the
last
three
years
over
30
million
pounds,
I
was
overspent
each
year.
So
Southampton
made
a
statement.
Yesterday,
they're
spending
two
million
pounds
a
month,
more
than
they've
got
coming
in
we're,
probably
at
three
million
pounds
a
month
and
instead
of
actually
dealing
with
that
overspend
the
last
three
years
the
previous
administration
took
out
of
the
reserves
about
30
million
pounds
a
year
plug
the
gap
you
plug
the
Gap
varying
the
problem.
A
There
is
no
money
left,
there's
27
million
pounds
left
in
the
reserves,
some
of
most
of
which
is
earmarked
for
things
that
it
has
to
be
spent
on.
So
there
isn't
enough
money
to
keep
doing
that.
We
will
have
to
deal
with
the
cuts.
We
will
have
to
shrink
some
Services
we'll
have
to
shrink
the
council
if
we
don't
and
we
are
unable
to
pay
our
bills.
A
That's
when
we
have
to
declare
a
section
114
and
if
that
were
to
happen,
the
council
would
lose
all
its
own
decision
making
and
the
government
would
effectively
say.
The
only
thing
you
can
spend
money
on
is
what
you
statutorily
legally
have
to
do
to
anything.
That's
that's
a
non-saturally
spend
would
have
to
stop.
We
don't
want
to
do
that.
We
don't
want
to
be
told
what
to
spend
our
money
on.
A
We
want
to
have
that
choice,
so
we
will
do
what
we
can
to
stop
that
from
happening,
but
there
is
a
a
massive
problem
in
our
special
needs.
Funding.
A
lot
of
councils
are,
in
the
same
situation,
lots
more
children
needing
ehcps,
which
are
Education
Health
and
Care
plans,
and
when
children
have
an
ehcp,
they
often
need
to
go
to
a
special
school
or
their
parents
will
ask
them
to
go
to
a
special
school
because
they
don't
feel
that
they're
getting
what
they
need
from
mainstream
School.
A
Unless
the
government
lets
us
write
that
dead
off
we'll
be
bankrupt.
So,
yes,
there
are
huge
issues
in
send
somebody's,
just
put
that
s-e-n-d
special
educational
needs
and
disabilities.
There
are
huge
issues,
but
the
reality
is
they're
not
of
our
making
and
we're
having
to
fix
the
problem.
The
government
needs
to
pick
pick
up
this
problem
and
that's
why
somebody's
asked
a
question
about
something
called
safety
valve.
Are
we
looking
to
go
down?
The
safety
valve
route
safety
valve
is
one
of
the
schemes
the
government
allows.
A
It
sounds
great,
but
we
need
to
check
out
whether
it's
actually
going
to
work
for
us,
because
we
don't
have
any
money
left
to
put
in
we're
currently
in
a
different
program,
called
the
delivery,
better
value
program,
which
is
the
one
below
safety
valve
and
we've
been
able
to
bid
for
a
million
pounds
to
help
with
that.
But
67
deficit
we've
got
a
million
pounds,
so
it
is
a
real
problem
and
the
team
are
working
night
and
day
to
try
and
improve
the
performance
of
special
educational
needs
team.
A
A
Educational
psychologists
are
like
unicorns,
they
are
wonderful,
beautiful,
fabulous
people
who
do
incredible
work
but
they're
incredibly
expensive,
and
they
there
are
very
few
of
them
and
if
you've
got
hundreds
of
children
waiting
for
the
hcp
there's
only
so
many
that
can
actually
get
through
the
system.
It's
a
real
problem,
so
moving
on
to
something
else,
do
I
have
anything
else
on
there,
no
I.
Why
are
residents
Amanda?
Why
are
residents
no
longer
contacted
by
letter
about
neighbors
developments?
A
This
is
something
most
councils
have
stopped.
Dorset
Council
stopped
doing
it
in
2020.
We
stopped
doing
it
this
year.
Basically,
it
cost
us
twenty
thousand
pounds
to
send
letters
to
neighbors
and
those
letters
are
not
a
requirement
of
the
council.
So
again,
not
statutory
you've
got
to
consider
everything
we
are
required
to
put
up,
or
there
are
requirements
to
put
up
site
notices
or
letters.
So
we've
gone
with
site
notices.
A
A
Anybody
can
go
on
to
the
council
website
and
they
can
get
a
list
from
their
own
Ward
or
Paul
or
Bournemouth
or
Christchurch
of
planning
applications
in
my
ward
in
Broadstone
and
I
do
a
Weekly
Newsletter,
and
it
includes
myself
and
my
colleague
Peter
every
week
we
do
all
of
the
planning
applications
for
Broadstone.
So
if
you're
not
getting
that
from
your
counselor
I
suggest
you
talk
to
them,
ask
if
they'd
be
willing
to
actually
send
you
out
a
copy
of
the
weekly
list
that
allows
people
to
to
get
that.
A
Our
aim
is
that
the
website
will
allow
you
to
apply
for
alerts,
but
the
the
website
is
a
probably
another
year
away
from
getting
that
in
so
just
to
say
that
there
is
a
neighbor
period,
every
planning
application.
There
is
a
period
of
time
for
statutory
consultation
period,
whereby
anybody
can
make
a
comment,
an
objection,
a
letter
of
support
via
either
letter
or
email.
A
That
is
something
anybody
can
do.
You
can
all
look
up
you
where,
where
you
live,
you
can
put
your
Road
in
and
it
will
tell
you
all
the
planning
applications
that
I've
ever
been
done
there
and
you
can
check
that
out
and
actually
put
in
comments,
and
we
would
never
make
any
decision
on
an
application
until
that
statutory
period
has
expired.
The
other
thing
just
say
on
planning
is
that
if
you
are
worried
about
a
planning
application,
that's
what
your
ward
counselors
are
for.
A
They
are
there
to
help
you
to
navigate
that
system,
to
help
you
with
objections
and
if
there's
a
lot
of
objections
or
it's
a
particularly
contentious
site,
they
could
call
it
into
planning
committee
where
they
can
speak.
You
can
speak
and
actually
have
your
say
in
front
of
a
committee
of
15
people
who
will
make
that
decision
in
front
of
you.
So
let's
have
a
look
at
some
questions
that
have
come
in
here.
A
Julie
has
asked
about
scooters
and
e-bikes
on
the
prom,
so
we
have
a
band
between
July
and
August
between
10
and
six
of
not
having
bikes
of
any
sort.
The
team
do
a
great
job
in
in
trying
to
actually
intervene
and
stop
those
bikes.
There
are
much
fewer
bikes,
it's
obviously
a
lot
busier,
so
people
can't
get
along
there.
A
It's
the
private
ones
that
are
the
real
issue
and
the
private
ones,
unfortunately
are
illegal
anyway.
So
it's
a
police
matter.
If
somebody
is
using
an
e-scooter
that
is
not
a
barrel
higher
e-scooter
anywhere
on
the
roads
on
the
Pavements
on
the
cycle,
Lanes
in
any
public
land,
that
is
a
police
matter,
you
can
call
the
police
clearly
the
police
act
upon
risk
and
harm,
but
it
is
illegal
to
use
an
e-scooter
that
is
not
a
highest
one.
So
that's
sort
of
out
of
our
domain.
A
We
are
expecting
a
change
in
legislation
and
hopefully,
if
they
do
get,
madeley
have
speed
limiters
and
things
like
that.
But
for
Barrel
you
do
actually
have
to
be
a
driving
license,
holder
and
register
your
driving
license
web.
When
you
use
the
the
barrel
system,
so
you
know
that
that
that's
allows
you
to
complain
to
Beryl
if
you're
worried,
because
they
know
exactly
who
is
using
those
e-scooters.
A
So
somebody's
just
said
that
they
cycled
down
the
problem
yesterday
and
there
weren't
any
other
e-bikes
being
used
on
the
prom.
So
I
don't
think
it's
a
a
major
problem.
There
are
a
lot
of
people
myself
included.
Who
think
do
you
know
what
it's
the
perfect
route
for
cycling,
but
it's
it.
The
problem
is
the
width
and
how
we
manage
the
two
together
and
that
comes
up
it's
an
awful
lot.
A
Let's
have
a
look
at
some
other
questions,
I'm
going
to
go
all
the
way
back
to
the
beginning
and
I'm
going
to
where
are
we
e-scooters
glitter?
Thanks
to
your
efforts,
no
problem,
carbon
footprint,
someone
said
it
feels
like
a
foregone
conclusion
about
the
Air
Festival
being
bin,
we're
not
going
through
the
motions,
Aaron
I
promise
you
that
I
am
working
as
hard
as
I
can
to
make
sure
we
can
do
this.
What
we've
said
in
our
budget
is,
we
cannot
afford
four
hundred
thousand
fact.
A
We
cannot
deliver
a
400,
000
pounds,
Air
Festival.
What
we've
worked
out
is
how
much
we
think
we
can
afford
next
year
and
if
we
can
get
some
decent
sponsors
you
know.
Did
you
know,
for
example,
that
the
pilots
who
come
to
the
Air
Festival
their
accommodation,
is
funded
by
your
council?
Tax
I
was
horrified
when
I
heard
that
utterly
horrified
I've
I
assumed,
like
most
people,
that
the
hotels
would
love
to
have
the
pilots
in
there,
and
that
would
be
their
contribution
as
they
are
obviously
very,
very
busy.
A
During
that
time,
I've
made
it
really
clear
that
needs
to
be
funded
by
by
businesses
the
the
Car
hire
for
the
pilots.
Of
course,
they've
got
to
get
around.
Is
there
not
a
local
company
that
would
be
willing
to
pay?
For
that?
You
know
we
need
to
think
more
creatively.
So
it's
not
a
foregone
conclusion,
but
it
is
a
program
conclusion
we're
not
spending
400
000
pounds.
A
Jason
Miles
has
asked
any
chance
of
chilling
out
with
speed
cameras
and
vans.
Jason,
quick
one,
that's
the
police.
You
need
to
take
that
to
them.
I'd
encourage
the
police
and
crime.
Commissioner,
to
do
something
like
this
speed,
the
only
camera
Vans
we
have
are
the
ones
that
are
able
to
patrol
things
like
the
school
entrances,
which
is
obviously
about
the
zigzags.
But
we
don't
do
speed
cameras,
speed,
camera
Vans.
A
I'd
really
love
to
see
less
people
speeding
and
then
it
wouldn't
matter
if
there
were
speed
cameras
on
every
Road
because
it
wouldn't
be
affecting
you.
So
why
can't
the
government
give
more
realistic
budgets
for
the
very
real
and
obvious
needs
LinkedIn
user
spot
on
just
so
you
know
if
you
go
back
15
years
or
so
we
actually
had
105
million
pounds
a
year
more
from
government
than
we
have
now.
A
The
cost
of
the
council
are
funded
by
council
tax,
business
rates
fees
and
charges
and
some
grants
grants
typically
can
only
be
spent
on
capital
projects.
So
we
can't
get
a
grant
for,
let's
say
cycle
loans,
because
everyone
wants
to
talk
about
it.
If
we
get
a
graph
cycle
Lanes,
that's
what
we
have
to
spend
it
for,
we
can't
spend
it
on
special
educational
needs.
We
can't
even
spend
it
on
subsidizing
bus
fares
because
that's
a
revenue
thing,
not
a
capital
thing.
The
business
rates
people
talk
a
lot
about.
A
Why
don't
we
charge
people?
Less
business
rates,
help
businesses,
business
rates
are
set
by
the
valuation
agency
and
the
government
we
collect
it
through
somebody's,
your
business
rate
gets
paid
to
us.
We
only
get
to
keep
about
40
percent
of
it.
The
majority
of
that
goes
straight
back
to
government
and
handed
to
areas
that
are
deemed
in
Greater
need.
A
So
if
we
were
to
subsidize
somebody's
business
rate
that
wouldn't
be
coming
from
the
business
rate
pot,
it
would
be
coming
from
the
other
services,
whether
that
be
disabled
people,
elderly
people,
children
in
care.
You
know
empty
your
bins.
Do
your
potholes.
All
of
those
things
so
Julie
is,
is
clearly
having
a
horrible
time.
Julie
says:
he's
got
no
heating
hot
water.
No
washing
facilities
are
walls
full
of
mold.
A
Do
you
know
what
I
don't
know,
Julie
or
circumstances
I
think
you
need
to
to
send
something
into
us
to
to
look
into,
but
there
are
some
really
bad
housing
conditions
out
there
right
now,
and
you
know
the
council's
got
some
some
less
than
fabulous
facilities.
There's
nothing
else
out
there.
Prices
are
so
high.
The
council
are
working
really
really
hard
to
build
as
many
properties
as
they
can.
A
So
the
town
is
going
to
rot.
Paul
says
what
will
happen:
I'm,
sorry,
that
you
feel
that
way.
Paul
I
hope
you
contributed
to
the
Bournemouth
Town
Center
survey
that
we
did
earlier.
In
the
summer
we
had
over
two
and
a
half
thousand
people
that
did.
They
came
up
with
some
great
ideas,
we're
currently
analyzing
those
ideas.
We
are
planning
a
town
center
Summit
to
take
all
the
public
ideas
to
all
of
the
organizations
that
can
help
us.
The
MP
will
be
coming.
A
We're
hoping
people
from
government
will
be
coming
historic,
England,
property
developers,
landlords
retailers,
business
organizations,
universities,
language,
schools,
you
name
it:
the
police,
the
Health,
Service
they're,
all
invited
they
will
be
coming
to
work
collectively
to
say
he
owns
the
building
over
there
they've
got
some
money.
They've
got
an
idea.
How
can
we
make
that
all
happen
together?
So
the
output
of
that
town
center
Summit
will
come
probably
tail
end
of
the
year.
There'll
be
some
clear,
measurable
things
that
we
want
to
do.
A
But
again
remember
the
council
doesn't
own
most
of
those
buildings,
so
we
need
to
be
the
enabler
and
the
facilitator
for
other
people.
Okay,
we
are
almost
up
to
the
end.
The
public
won't
be
coming
to
those,
but
that
is
a
town
center
Summit.
The
public
have
had
their
opportunity
to
put
their
ideas
in.
We
now
need
to
talk
to
the
people
who
have
the
ability
to
make
those
things
happen
to
see
how
we
make
them
happen.
A
Clearly,
if
there
are
any
projects
that
come
through
at
the
other
end,
then
you
know:
if
they
involve
a
planning
application,
then
everybody
will
have
their
say
on
a
planning
application,
and
if
that
involves
a
significant
spend
of
public
money,
then
there's
likely
to
be
a
process
through
that
as
well
and
remember
anytime,
the
council
makes
a
decision.
It
goes
to
a
democratic
process,
so
any
major
decision
we'll
have
the
cabinet
or
full
Council
to
make
a
decision
and
it
will
have
scrutiny
as
well.
A
So
the
public
are
always
welcome
to
attend
a
meeting,
to
ask
questions
to
anything
on
the
agenda
to
raise
a
petition,
make
a
statement
just
watch
and
engage
for
it.
So
you
know
that's
where
I,
what
I
would
go
with
that
so
Julie?
You
need
to
actually
engage
going
back
to
Julie's
no
help
on
her
Kate
I
can't
talk
about
your
specific
case.
A
What
I
need
you
to
do
is
I.
Need
you
to
engage
with
the
housing
team
and
engage
with
your
local
local
councils.
The
the
team
have
just
put
the
conditions
website
on
there,
so
I'm
Anne-Marie
Clark
has
said.
Finally
good
news.
Thank
you
for
the
beautiful
flower
baskets
that
have
been
stunning
all
summer.
The
cheerful
chaps
that
pick
up
the
litter
in
Paul
Old
Town,
two
things
I,
want
to
say
thank
you
to
the
cheerful
chaps
that
pick
up
the
letter.
A
I
also
want
to
say
thank
you
to
the
bids,
the
business
Improvement
districts
who
do
so
much
to
try
and
help
our
town
centers.
They
are
funded
by
the
businesses.
They
all
pay
a
levy
and
the
businesses
decide
what
they
want
to
spend
their
money
on,
and
sometimes
it's
hanging
baskets.
Sometimes
it's
events,
sometimes
it's
marketing,
so
it
isn't.
Just
the
council
that's
trying
to
do
their
bit.
It's
the
business
Community
as
well,
so
support
your
local
businesses.
They'll
make
more
money.
A
They
make
more
money,
they
can
give
us
more
money
and
make
the
place
look,
lovely,
but
brilliant
to
the
the
chaps
that
pick
up
the
litter
really
grateful
to
them
and
the
hard
work
that
they
do.
I
will
be
back
hopefully
next
month,
I'm
just
about
to
go
and
do
a
big
interview
about
future
places.
So
I
would
watch
out
in
the
in
the
media
about
what
we're
saying
about
the
future
of
development
in
this
area
and
hope
to
see
you
all
again
soon
take
care
bye.
