28 October - The do nothing Council
It
is a month since the
Community Protection Notice served on the owner of the former Leather Bottle
eyesore expired although who that actually is I am no longer sure. I
understand that Mr. Singh carved it into three plots which makes serving notices more difficult.
It is not obvious that anyone has complied with the Notice so a resident who
lives nearby asked the Council in an FOI what they had done about it. Details of
current or recent legal proceedings, enforcement actions, or formal notices
issued and copies of correspondence; that sort of thing. Probably Bexley
Council is still sitting on its hands. A bit like someone must be when it comes
to emptying bins. This one has been full since before the Bottle’s Community Notice expired.
