[meersbrook-house] IP address for survey

[David Garlovsky]

Nick

Thank you for this information. The question arises - Who do we believe????

We need urgently from the SSC, in writing, is what their plans are. Does anyone have such a document? Has the Meersbrook Park User Trust  been contacted with such information. I can not remember if Kaktus has mentioned this in any of the meetings he has attended. 

With all respect, we can not simply go by a private informal conversations you or anyone else has had with one of the parks staff or any of our elected councillors.  I am very wary of such dialogue. The park staff can come to our public meeting if they like and present their situation to the community and be prepared to answer questions. I would guess none would do this. Nor would they be allowed i expect. 

LEAFLET

I will put some further thoughts on the leaflet on the Forum. However, I would support our going to a local printer even if more expensive. If I or my charity and company had  the extra cash I would put in the £100 for the quote I received for the 5000 leaflets. I would like to hear from the steering Group that we look for a sponsor for  this money. As a local community group we need to maintain certain principals from my point of view. Going to Vista Print in the Netherlands  for printing the leaflets I do not support. 

Kind regards,

David

I'm used to doing this (manage a few similar pages) and happy to help whilst you are away, though it's not something I want to do long term.  You judge what to say well, but there is one comment - and it is reflected on the leaflet too - which still bothers me.  It's not you - it's something lots of people have been saying.   I spoke with a Parks officer yesterday, he said they had been told there were no definite plans and if they were going to move it wasn't going to be imminent. This echoes what we have been told by the councillors, ie the official position.

Can we have 'in the process of moving out',   or   'have moved some officers out already'  ?

Councillors can be very sensitive about having controversial decisions ascribed to them which they have not made (or at least announced)   Of course the council have moved some staff out - but as long as there is the chance of parks staff staying I think it is better to sit on the fence with this in any official sounding announcements.
