  1. In the Hereford Times public notice section last week concerning Link Road The link above does not appear to be working strangely. The schedule to land in question - all 130 parcels. 140214_not4_public_notice_of_inquiry_edgar_street_grid_and_link_rd.doc
  2. Taken from this post: Westminster Council Tax for 2013/14 Band A £453.83 Band B £529.47 Band C £605.10 Band D £680.74 Band E £832.01 Band F £983.29 Band G £1,134.57 Band H £1,361.48 Herefordshire Council Tax for 2013/14 Band A £1,014.50 Band B £1,183.56 Band C £1,352.66 Band D £1,521.74 Not sure why this figure is different to Hereford Times report as I have got this figure from the HC website? Band E £1,859.91 Band F £2,198.08 Band G £2,536.23 Band H £3,043.48
  3. And also at Herefordshire Housing: Following their new corporate image change more expenditure at HQ.
  4. Posted in How many empty shops in Hereford see post 3 In the Hereford Times (p2, 26th December edition): "Receivers have been appointed to Hereford's Maylord shopping centre with existing tenants facing an investigation into their occupancy rights"
  5. I think they could be for flying standards of the undemocratic republics of the Council and Stanhope. Maybe it's harking back to the good old days when you put your foes severed head on a pike and displayed it as a warning to others. Look out Bobby!
  6. The decision to step down, said Mr Curtis, had been driven by “flourishing†business ventures beyond the NHS that were making increasing demands on his time. Another nasty rash of departures!
  7. Interesting document worth reading with 29 case studies. Notice that Herefordshire Council is not mentioned in this report, but may not have been in the original consultation group. LOCAL AUTHORITY HERITAGE ASSETS: CURRENT ISSUES AND OPPORTUNITIES Report to English Heritage and the Heritage Lottery Fund By Green Balance with Grover Lewis Associates Ltd What with English Heritage saying that the Working Boys was not worth listing and the council not being consulted or interested in this report, no wonder there is little hope of saving any of the city's heritage for the future.
  8. Here you are Dippy. From Hereford Times - Friday 1st November 2013 in Letters I have saved the comments in case HT remove this letter.

  10. From the Hereford Times - Your Say March 20th 2014: All the relevant agencies are turning a blind eye to the litter and waste problem. You just go round in circles. About time these managers walked around these estates and saw the mess.
  11. A fine building adding interest to the street scene, better than a car park!
  12. From the Hereford Times - Your Say March 20th 2014: The council tax increase is not modest when I have to pay £119 a month for a pi*% poor service. Any financial improvements are usually only for the benefit of the council and its private contractors!
  13. From the Hereford Times - Your Say March 20th 2014: Hereford Council is in on this. A very good letter should have highlighted it all.
  14. From the Hereford Times - Your Say March 20th 2014: Not cut and dried then?
  15. Interesting article from The Guardian, Friday 21 March 2014 12.25 GMT by Richard Williams Good job Herefordshire Council aren't involved - it would turned into another car park. And another letter regarding local skate park in Hereford Times - Your Say March 20th 2014: Does that mean the total costs are going to be around £4,583,333 or have I got my maths wrong? You could easily of had a Velodrome for this sort of money. Or is it £550,00 total cost - not clear.
  16. From the Hereford Times - Your Say March 20th 2014:
  17. From the Hereford Times - Your Say March 20th 2014: Balfour Beatty have got the contract to repair the roads over the next 10 years. With the government awarding the council an additional £3.5M to help with the road damage caused by the recent floods, plus £20M the council announced last month which will be used over the next two years to address underlying deterioration and prevent roads from deteriorating further in future years, are we going to see this money siphoned off or creatively accounted towards the Link Road. I hope not! and I wonder where he called to see Balfou Beatty - I'll contact him. Great tips on how get the rubbish removed as a last resort. and I think so.
  18. What are the minimum requirements? Where were the two sites rejected? Since this date what other sites have been being considered, other than Bath Street, which I assume is the existing site referred above? In view that Marcelle Lloyd-Hayes (IOC - Tupsley ward) and Bob Matthews (Independent - Credenhill) are Hereford & Worcester Fire and Rescue Authority Members, has Cllr Mark Hubburd (IOC - Central ward) got together with them and Jim Kenyon (IOC - Tupsley ward) to discuss what is going on?
  19. And of course the Belmont Pub which was demolished for McDonalds.
  20. Should the link road be built, the bus station site would give easier access to Edgar Street for fire vehicles to go north or south of the river.
  21. What's all this about? How can the council be saving money if it is proposing to extend FCC's contract by seven years. Paying less, but for a longer period. Surely another contractor could offer a better price to cover the existing collections. After all the waste is collected everyday in Spain and they do not use black bags. They have large bins located on the collection routes and people put their waste in them preventing vermin and litter on the streets. They also act as public waste bins.
