Pritt Stick Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 I won't believe the Council did this without the family's full prior permission. Sounds like the family is just griping after the fact 'cos they don't like it. And I don't blame them for not liking it but they would gave had a say before and during the process.

Mister M Posted February 13, 2014 Share Posted February 13, 2014 There probably is a better answer. It's a story worthy of a local newspaper I would have thought, but not a national newspaper. Unless of course it fits in with the said newspaper's general agenda of lampooning local government, then it's a worthy inclusion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely there was a better answer This is just the kind of money wasting exercise our councils do on a daily basis, the person that came up with it as a solution to the families problem is an idiot.
