Neighbourhood Warden

Since my election as Councillor in 2004 Plas Madoc has had a Neighbourhood Warden in Place, called Alan. The reason for introducing Neighbourhhod wardens was to tackle anti-social behaviour and be the eyes and ears of the community. Unfortunatly the Liberal Democrats who now run Wrexham Council have been against the wardens, and on wednesday they decided to try and get rid of a succesfull Labour policy - the Neighbourhhod warden.
This is utterly disgraceful Alan is well known and liked by most residents in Plas Madoc The liberals say their is no need for a warden and his job can be carried ot by the current police support officer.

At committee on Wednesday i opposed these plans, with my fellow labour councillors, we have got the liberals plan delayed until June 22nd But be in no doubt the Liberals ambition is to do away with alan and all other wardens in the county, they say for cost reasons, i say the Liberals know the cost of everything and the value of nothing.

If you are also against the liberal democrat plans then please write to the leader of the council, write to the newspapers, you can also contact me by e-mail paul.blackwell@wrexham.gov.uk or Tell 01490 430873 / 07855 620891 or place a comment below
