Its not their money so they don;t care what they spend it on,piece of concrete on Colwyn prom or 5k for consultants,as long as they get paid on a friday and use up their budget they are happy binnies.

Since the fees appear unrealistically high for such an apparently simple project, perhaps the Daily Post or Weekly News could investigate?

Good idea, although I expect that CCBC would want to employ outside consultants to investigate!  :twoface:
Why do councils always need outside consultants anyway? Do they employ staff who know nothing? The CCBC staff all seem to be highly paid by us, yet seem to be clueless!  &shake&

If the Paid Officers were allowed to do their work without let or hinderence from the Council Members, I think you would find that things would improve.   Not suggesting, of course, that all Officers are worth their salt!

The one attribute, so essential in today's World, and which many lack, is just plain, good, old fashioned, COMMON SENSE.     Y^^Y   >?>??

It's a little sad to see that the only areas of summer bedding flowers in Happy Valley are now outside the cafe. All the other flower beds have been filled with shrubs/perennials to save money.

Was it only back in 2009 that it looked like this?

I wonder what price these guys would give for getting the water feature back into action?

it beggers belief that they have no influence on getting it fixed or has it been.

We passed it over a week ago and I remember commenting that a start had been made.

I assume reference is being made to the wooden launching jetty opposite the Imperial Hotel.
