Moderator (Steve Tierney)’s Response:
We’ve now spoken on the phone Mrs Steel. Hopefully the details I gave you of your UKIP County Councillor – who is responsible for highways issues – was helpful. If he turns out to be about as effective as chocolate teapot (which will not surprise me in the least), give me a buzz and I’ll see if there’s anything I can do.
Hi Steve – thought you might appreciate these!

Hi Steve;
Its been a while since we last corresponded on the subject of the Landlord Licencing scheme.
I wondered if you know in your capacity as a councillor what the outcome of the landlord consultation was ?
I have scoured FDC’s website and the local press and haven’t been able to find anything ? – dont they have to publish the result ??
I know that the consultation finished over a month ago now and Fenland still haven’t gone public with this ?
No doubt their busy manipulating the data to endorse this daft scheme for their own ends !
Thanks as always.
Michael.
The Landlord Licensing Scheme has not yet been adopted. Unfortunately, it appeared that it would not need to come to Full Council but could be pushed through by Cabinet alone, which I was very concerned about. But the strength of public opinion has apparently been such that they have had a bit of a rethink. They are now saying that the decision will be deferred until later in the year and that the proposals may change to reflect a different system they are considering. I don’t know much more than that, but for my part I’m just glad they are forcing it through right now. For the moment we need to just wait and see what happens next.
Hi Steve, Lucy here and I wondered if we could have a chat about speeding in Queens Rd? It really worries me and I think we need to do something about it. Thanks.
Hi,
Speeding is primarily a Police issue.
I have raised the issue of speeding on Queens Road with the Police in the past.
I have also taken Speedwatch to Queens Road and we are hoping to get back there next week as well.
Maybe you’d like to join us? The more the merrier!
If you’d like me to pop around and see you I’d be happy to do so.
Regards,
Steve Tierney
Thanks for your reply. Which might are you doing the speed watch? A quick visit separate to that would also be much appreciated. Thanks, Lucy
Good morning, I noticed on one of letters on your page about speeding on Queens Rd, just as important is the stupid parking on Queens Rd with the junction of Station Drive, people coming from Station Drive do not have clear vision going onto or across Queens Rd, there has already been a couple accidents there someone will get t boned before too much longer, double yellow lines 100mts either side of this junction would help and enforced, at the other end of Station Drive, stupid parking with the Railway Rd junction by staff at the two homes makes driving into and out of Station Drive dangerous, there are two free car parks within 500mts of these homes, staff should use them and not clog up station Drive, resident station drive
Thanks for your comment! I full agree with you that people do speed Queens Road dangerously. I have taken SpeedWatch to Queens Road a couple of times to try and slow people down a bit, but its obviously only a sticking plaster for a larger problem. I also agree that some of the parking is silly and very unhelpful. In regards to new Double Yellow lines, I will raise your suggestion with the County Councillor, Sam Hoy (It’s a County Council issue) and get some feedback about it. In regards to the staff in the homes, as long as the places they park are legal parking spaces they are as entitled to use them as anybody else, within the law. But I appreciate it is frustrating for residents and am happy to speak to the care homes and ask if they’d have a polite and friendly word with their staff to encourage them to be more considerate of people who live nearby.
Awesome blog steve hi its me richard hope your ok btw my dads funiral was a very nice send off for him, did you see in this weeks paper a old 70 lady got fined by them enforcement officers for dropping a cig end i hope wisbech council scraps that stupid trial run before someone gets hurt btw a few weeks b4 i bumped into you i was riding my bike down that road and saw the ex mayor and 4 no reason at all she gave me a angry faced look i dnt know her or said anything to her plz tell her off
Hi Richard,
People should not drop litter, whether they are 17 or 70. If anything, an older person should have learnt not to do it. I have no problem with tickets being issues to a Seventy year old, unless there is some medical reason why they didn’t understand that dropping a cigarette end is unacceptable.
I don’t think the lady you are referring to was angry. Maybe you misread the expression? It happens.
Sorry about your Dad, but please to hear that the send off went well.
Hi again thx 4 the reply :)
