It was regarded as 'commercial' at one point You can use a van so long as the van only contains household items Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last Ten Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 I sometimes wonder what Douglas Corporations future vision is? They have got shut of the Horse Trams, Chester Street Car Park, now considering farming out the Amenity site! (I am sure there are more). Where is all of the rates revenue going? staff, vehicles and buildings I presume. Time for change in the Municipal Building, lots of senior staff milking the place dry.

All these Govt bodies and many LAs are spending big on themselves and have been for a few years now. The problems will arise when near-future Budgets require them to tighten their belts and the usual method of "savings" (ie price and charges hikes) is met with the long overdue pitchfork and burning torch marches. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manxman34 Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 Corpy's nothing like as bad as it was when it had the Villa. The freeloading was unbelievable, with a special (free) bar for the Entertainments Committee and cronies as well as free admission. No freebies in car parks, so may as well ditch them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
