Forget Sixfields....what about successive councils who are taking the town down the pan with poor and bizarre decision making? Chaotic, inept, incompetent, the list goes on. I’m sure some stronger misdemeanours, which I’ll leave for the armchair sleuths.
Sky high town centre rates, not giving businesses a chance. No forward planning for the bus station site. Terrible design of traffic flow. I do feel feel sorry for the majority of council staff too who work under the umbrella of redundancy or poor pay rises. They will be no different to a lot of local councils around the country but several wrongs don’t make a right.
You're absolutely right, we've had one of the worst performing councils in the country for years now; and therein lies the answer. Forget political allegiances, because whoever holds sway they perform pitifully. Remember, you or I or anyone else on this board could stand as a councilor. We wouldn't need to know many of the rules because we would be guided by the officers. I believe this is one major cause of this town's woes, because these same well paid officers advise the actions of each and every council vote.
