Oakham Town Council Oakham Mayors New Chain

Oakham Town Council Oakham Mayors New Chain

Oakham Town Council take no notice of public opinion and voted to spend £6000 on a new chain for the Mayor.

Rather daftly they agreed this expenditure adding the clerk should get two more quotes, rather pointless when they have already approved the expenditure. Cllr Joyce Lucas said the other companies are more expensive and I guess they will be as the Clerk is highly likely to only approach the two they approached previously. Quotes should all be presented to council at the time of consideration, but then this Oakham Town Council.

It is good to see on social media that the majority of residents don't agree with the purchase perhaps they can write to the council and let them know.
There is even a letter in the Rutland Times.
