Yup, I went to the meeting and they did a good job in talking up the project... even I could see the reasoning behind it but.....
1. The final design has`nt been decided on so how can we decide if we want it or not, or how it will visually affect the landscape
2. The council gets lumbered with the maintenance costs which it can ill afford as anyone who has been through Milnshaw Park will know
3. Extra funding for upgrading paths and carparks may be avalible. This is based on inward investment being attracted to Top o Slates. This however is a former industrial site which gets regeneration grants. The Coppice as a park/moorland will not
Most of the people speaking at the meeting had a vested interest, the girl from the New Era, Paul from the council and Gayle Knights mum. Oh and I don`t think Purplelass is Gayle, her birthdays in october.
