Killisick Court, Arnold: Latest Update

Killisick Court, Arnold

The news gets worse.

In August there was a special council meeting called by the Labour Party to debate the future of Killisick Court (we are not the only ones worried about this, it seems).

The Labour Party don't quite understand the situation as they called for Killisick Court to be returned to warden-aided accommodation for the elderly, but the Borough has a surplus of such accommodation.

At the meeting we accused the Tories of wasting £400,000 which they didn't deny, but they did claim that, even though the property was empty, the Council wasn't losing any rent! A lot of councillors laughed.

The Evening Post reporter present said later that he had asked the Council's press office how much rent was being lost and he had been told it was £4,000 per month.

Gedling's Tories are not spending your money wisely.
