I think photos are a good idea, this has been an ongoing saga for years. Helen ----- Original Message ----- From: "Nicky Farmer" <[email protected]> To: <[email protected]> Sent: Monday, September 21, 2009 7:50 AM Subject: [obsnw] Re: Old Dairy in Lower Wrensch
A month or two ago, we spotted a man on the grounds - when we approached him (from the safety of our car of course) he said he was there on the owner's instruction. Later that same day, and again the following day, there was a big clean up on the property. But nothing since and it's again looking worse than ever, with open bags of rubbish facing out onto the street on the corner, and the gates wide open. Of course vagrants come and go as they please ... spending the night I'm sure! Shall we take some photos for the 13 Oct meeting?

I think this is a task that needs to spearheaded by the new OCA Chair, Trevor Hughes. Please contact him directly and let's move on with this. Place it on the OCA agenda as TOP PRIORITY for next month's meeting on 13 October 2009, and invite Cllr. Thomas to provide solutions, not answers. I can warrant, without fear of contradiction, that if this eyesore was next door to ANY councillor's home, be it Chapple, Kinahan, Watkyns, Iversen, or Thomas, the problem would have been solved ages ago. GodZille would have simply gone AAAARGH! and stomped on the building. I suggest gathering some ammunition in terms of by-laws and names and contact details of responsible officials (are there such things?) and prepare for the battle. The solution to this problem will be a milestone, nay, a Monument, in the history of Observatory. My two cents. Brian.
