Oakham Town Council £740 to plug in Christmas Tree Lights

Oakham Town Council £740 to plug in Christmas Tree Lights

Oakham Town Mayor told Oakham Town Councillors the first switch on of the towns
Christmas lights would cost around £500

The event was only just approved.

The Town Council has paid Lite Ltd £600 for men already working on site to
plug in the lights and there is a  additional cost of £240 described as work in relation to the switch
on. ?

The Mayor lied and deceived members about the cost of a poorly attended event which eventually saw the tree replaced.
