LETTER: Market needs more incentives and some common sense
If other towns can do it, what is the problem? What about the empty shops around the market area looking dismal? Could nothing be done?
I can recall many years ago that one of them sold books, but is now empty. Has the council contacted the owners? We do not want more banks or estate agents either, although banks are closing and replacing staff with service machines. The market traders need leaving where they are and incentives for more to come.

Do any of the councillors have disabled drivers or users in their contacts, and realise the many difficulties it entails? I expect possibly not. Finally, it comes down to basic commonsense, not more surveys, meetings, cups of tea and muffins etc. Some of the councillors have been or are, I believe, in business. Surely this doesn’t take a lot of thinking? Or does it? I rest my case.
