No more land grabbing and interference with drainage should be tolerated.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-36604103.post-72607857221522679982010-05-17T11:57:12.384+01:002010-05-17T11:57:12.384+01:00The proposal will remedy most of the drainage prob...The proposal will remedy most of the drainage problems which have been allowed to develop over the years since the village estates were built. The pity is that a lot of this expenditure and the flood damage could have been avoided if various adjacent occupiers had not interfered with the dykes or if the authority with the power to stop such activity (Lower Ouse Internal Drainage Board) had fulfilled their duties in ensuring owners looked after the systems. However we must press ahead and hope the village consultation supports the work so as to avoid a repeat of June 2007. It should be noted that if the extraordinary heavy rains return prior to completion of the work the floods would be with us once more so time is of the essence.John Jessopnoreply@blogger.com
