3 February (Part 2) - Phantom video
After
years of abuse by fly tippers Bexley Council has at last got off of its backside
and done something about the problem in Coptefield Drive. Not a lot, but something.
They have erected four warning notices, with permission or not I have yet to find
out, but these are privately owned flats and Bexley Council should be careful about going
around screwing notices to property that is not theirs. The fence belongs to the
leaseholder but the brown wooden door is in private ownership. If it was mine
I’d be asking for compensation.
If there really is a camera in operation it is exceptionally well hidden. There
are of course such things as battery operated cameras and some are tiny but they do not have a
long life and there is no sign of any power or data cables anywhere.
I doubt any of the residents would want to supply Bexley Council with free
electricity and the leaseholder’s communal area is some distance away and there
is definitely no power cable coming from it.
I suspect it is all scare tactics but welcome nevertheless.
