Some anxiety for those pushing for a parish council that there has not been a rush to participate in the second stage of consultation. Letters to the local press indicate that there is some opposition to the creation of a parish council for Rusthall. Nevertheless I expect one will be created as it fits the current government's localism agenda and it is intended to give parish councils greater powers.
In the local press this week there is a report of a Rusthall councillor on Tunbridge Wells Borough Council stating that the costs of Christmas lights in Rusthall could be met next year by the parish council precept. Could they now. What other bright ideas has councillor Edwards for lumbering Rusthall residents with expenditure?
