I have heard rumours and I was wondering which have credence and which do not? Does anyone out there have the answers?

1.    Have you heard that the residents of St. Joseph's close have up to ten to vacate because those buildings along with the house on the corner of Cromer Road and Cremer's Drift have been sold as part of Tesco's redevelopment of the area. The for-mentioned house will be knocked down to be made into a round about as part of the road entrance to the store.

2    St Peters Church is going to be redeveloped as well as the church hall. Really?

The common sense view about parking restrictions:

All parking restrictions should be planned and implemented by the individual town councils. They should have the right to say where, and where not to have yellow lines. They should have the power to stipulate haw long the time limits should be. And most importantly they should have the power to amend the current yellow lines themselves with the appropriate funding coming from the national pot.

Each town should be given sum o f cash for this purpose annually. This should not be a central governing role or be part of an external agency with road works such as this being put out to tender. How hard must it be for a couple of council employees to paint a few lines here and there when the situation arises?
We should not have to ask permission and wait goodness knows how long for this sort of thing to be sorted out. We should have a "If it needs doing, do it" policy. We might then be able to have double yellow lines where they are needed in future and some where they are not!
