I'm meeting with the new Town Centre manager next week to find out why the decision was made and hopefully finding some figures to support this.

Ten grand?
My, that's a nice round figure.
Don't give up.
I'm sure we'd all love to know the breakdown, and exactly how that ten thousand pounds is arrived at.
Since Lancsdave, and other business, rent their properties off H.B.C., and don't have their own toilet facilities, I wonder if the powers that be worked how much a saving there'd be if the toilets in the Market Hall were closed?
Surely in the interest of saving tax payers' money, a fair comparisson would be made, before arriving at any decision?
That's if the decision was made with saving money in mind, and not about getting people to go upstairs in the Market Hall, traipsing through a particular cafe. Which I believe is owned by someone whose name is Britcliffe.
