Llandudno Christmas Illuminations

[wrex]

  I was told tonight to keep an eye on Penrhyn hill and Madoc st by a councillor ,Okay they have been shamed into doing something,but surely you get the MAIN street sorted first then sort out the side streets. :rage:

[DaveR]

I suspect they think they HAVE sorted out the main street, Wrex, with the marvellous array of 1 watt led lighting that you have difficulty telling if it's switched on or not.

I quite like those lights Dave. I think they look classy.

  The lights on Mostyn st do not represent xmas they are the summer lights,now as i have said they are going to improve Madoc st and Penrhyn hill.I suggested they welcome visitors along Conwy rd[main route into town] and Mostyn st,so they decide two fingers to that and want to improve lesser areas,what can you do with their utter ignorance. :rage:

[Yorkie]

At the next Council Election, canvass hard for people who will do something, or even stand for Council yourself - or have you had enough?    Z**

[wrex]

  Right as you know i have written to the town council and they have come up with some plan for Madoc st and Penrhyn hill,ignoring the Main road into Llandudno and the main street[Mostyn St] ,so that is their response,i will e-mail the new Mayor and ask for his personal views.This evening i have e-mailed ,Parc Llandudno,Asda head office and Mostyn Champneys about their lack of xmas anything,so i will let you know their responses.Merry xmas. Z**.

Good luck with Mr Robbins, the new encumbent Mayor.   Keep us posted Wrex.

At long last I have received the figures from Llandudno Town Council requested on 7 March and finally delivered a few days ago.   The 20 working days allowed by the Commissioner having been exceeded by more than enough!    The figures for Wrex and others if still interested are as follows:
Xmas Parade: 2003/4 to 2009/10.
2475 - 3033 - 2000 - 2384 - 2693 -3035 - 2904
Decorative Lighting: 2003/4 to 2009/10.
37945 - 19051 - 18045 - 18485 - 42223 - 29011 - 31653 - 26053
New Promenade Lighting:
2007 Phase 1 - 63088.......2008 Phase 2 - 59810
Grants to Rugby Club: 2004 to 2011
500 - 500 - 500 - 2000 - 2500 - 1000 - 1000 - 500
Town Twinning: 2006/7 to 2010/11
619 - 990 - 1323 - 872 - 632

It has not been made clear whether VAT is applicable to all items.  They were extremely poorly presented which would tend to indicate the Council's total dislike to providing such information.

  Can anyone suggest a way to get throught to Bertola and Boyle that it is Mostyn St they want to get right first not Madoc st and bloody Penrhyn Hill.They have told me to look out for those two this year,i just bang my head against a brick wall.I suggest they have a xmas welcome on the a470 so what do they do,the local road,idiots. :rage:

[Yorkie]

Be kind to your elders Wrex!   Remember they are the two oldest Members of the Town Council, and they last moved forward when sweets came off the ration.  Since then time has stood still and is unlikely to move forward again.    Z**

In the minutes of the last meeting the Decorative lighting committee in July they disscussed letter i had sent them in march and the outcome was to invite me onto the committee [ i still have had no invitation], the fact that it has taken themat least 3 months to even disscuss it shows there is no interest in improving Mostyn St , as for joining the committee it is held in the afternoon and they think this will SILENCE me, no way. I have admited defeat on getting any improvements because they have no will to improve anything in Llandudno whatsoever. :rage:

[DaveR]

They are also having a special meeting to discuss a complete new strategy towards Christmas Lighting in the town.
