The Gill Community 'steals' the SLDC salt-grit

Here we have documented evidence of the criminals who steal the SLDC supplies that are meant solely for the use of the Car Parks

Yes we, the Gill community, are the grit thieves. Come and get us - we await the knock of the police at our front doors.

Thank God we have a couple of councillors who refuse to accept SLDC rubbish, even though it's delivered by the lorry load.
Well done Councillors Jane Harris and Paul Smith who politely but firmly put the local district council in their place - see the Evening Mail article

So the question remains:
If the communities in central Ulverston are not meant to 'steal' the car park grit for doing the pavements that don't get salted by the county,
Where are they meant to get thier supplies  ?
Will it take the County and the District the next five years to squabble over who will do the job?

We are stil waiting for a similar squabble to be resolved:
Who is responsible for putting up a sign in the area of the Market Square for the Stockbridge Lane Car Park ?
Four years ago, after a lengthy three week 'consultation' with CCC those attending put the above as their top priority for improving the road network in Ulverston Town. Yet this sign notifying road users that there was a (an empty) Car Park at Stockbridge Lane needs to be paid for by the county, but it is a sign to a District Car Park - so ( they say) is none of their responsibility. Squabble, squabble, squabble. The County Councillors at the time - Wendy Kolbe and Pauline Halfpenny - at the end of the consultation meetings, in order to bring a noisy and unhappy public meeting to an end repeated over and over again - "Leave it to us, leave it to us". We are still waiting - the specific councillors long gone. The issue remains.

Do we have a Town Councillor with the tenacity and determination to bang a few heads together and knock a bit of common sense into the officers concerned?

Meanwhile the public suffers, venting their frustration in the repeated jibes made at the total shambles we often have for what is affectionately called 'democracy'.
