Yorkshire Water supporting Hemingbrough residents

I would like to take this opportunity to thank Yorkshire Water for their public information drop-in session held last night at the primary school. Documents and plans were available for inspection and Dafydd Williams headed up a group of Yorkshire Water and Costain representatives. Turnout was good and Hemingbrough residents had the opportunity to ask questions from the “technical people” (Dafydd Williams from Yorkshire Water's term, not mine).

An exit poll was carried out and feelings were that the “technical people” were unable to give answers to questions, were saying different things to different people and did not even agree amongst themselves. Some residents even said that it was “a waste of time”.

There was some useful information that came out of the drop-in session. Some residents discovered that this proposed site is only designed for the waste we have now, and that with further expansion of the village there will need to be expansion or addition to the proposed works in as little as 10 years time. Well, there’s an interesting development – I wonder how much closer to the village the works will be then?

Once again I would like to thank Yorkshire Water for supporting our cause and spectacularly shooting themselves in the foot, keep up the good work!
