And Dover District Council didn’t send a response to the FOI request apparently.

The Town Council have allocated £13.000. 00 in their budget this year for "town vehicles" which I presume is the Mayoral car and the 4 x 4.

The wider theme I will repeat again, we have at least 1 council to many
Doing away with KCC and giving that worksto district and town councils would save a small fortune
9 councillors for priory ward
far to many

Change the tune,From my experience in Dover yesterday it is obvious the councillors we have are not doing a good job.Its put me off ever taking my small Granddaughters into town.I had a forty minute wait for a bus when I arrived in Pencester .and. What did I see and hear a group of eight drunken drugs or booze having a fight with another group of six men and women.also stoned .
I walked down Biggin Street to get a taxi and outside Hinds. the jewellers four more sleeping rough.
Dover is not a nice place to be ,as for walking across Pencester to get to Marks no way .
If we have all these Councillors its time they sorted these problems.Town and District .

I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

Yes Jan and I responded and received an email acknowledgement thanking me for bringing it to Charlie’s attention.He must wear rose tinted glasses as it was disgraceful to see the anti social behaviour .

Same behaviour this morning Sue,I doubt that the Council leader comes into town often unless there is a photo call but Nigel lives close by and must be aware of the long standing problem.

Maybe the best way to get a positive reaction from Nigel would be if those drunks and druggies were to imbibe literally on his doorstep, I would also include the other appropriate councillors in this strategy.

Tell me what you are doing re the problems in Pencester.If we have too many councillors Well you can get together to resolve the issues.I only tell you on the forum as it is.I saw the problems yesterday and fired of emails and got responses.
Why don’t some of you Councillors ask questions of theChief Constable ?.

You are lucky I went to a scrutiny meeting last November 2017 and they agreed that where I live needs extra parking which can be done... I am still waiting since then for them to contact me.. I think you were lucky.. As for Pencester how many times have people complained and still it is not a nice place.
