Oakham resident complains about tree planting on playing field, Cllr Lucas, says planting is complete, resident said Thank God!

Oakham resident complains about tree planting on playing field, Cllr Lucas,
says planting is complete, resident said Thank God!

Oakham Town Council received a letter from a resident complaining
about the tree planting project that has been conducted by Cllr Joyce Lucas
at Royce Recreation Ground.

They also raised an issue about an entrance path, the council  has agreed
to spend £1058 to repair the path.

The letter from the resident was a perfect example of the lack of
consultation from this council.

I raised this issue at public deputations.

Cllr Lucas said later as for consultation she and her husband watered the
trees and often people told her how nice things looked.

That is not public consultation.

The letter writer was present and was pleased to hear Cllr Lucas had finished
planting trees, they said Thank God!

Cllr Lucas explained the avenue of trees were to guide dog around the edge of the
playong field in a hope the dogs won't poo on the playing field.
