How did he know that?
Hemingbrough Parish “Council had occupied
the tip” at Hagg Lane Ponds since at least July 15th 1935,
according to a previous minute book.
Would that knowledge have strengthened the Council’s application to have
the Green registered under ‘adverse possession’ rules? (See 10th
March 2017 post below).
Councillors should stop bawling at each other, stop playing
silly buggers, and seek the answers.
Instead, they meet in secret session closed to the press and public, to
further their fight with the Hagg Lane Conservation Group.
Didn’t the recent Selby District Council former
Deputy CEO Jonathan Lund’s investigation of the relationship between them teach
them a lesson? (More later).
31 March 1948
“The disgraceful state of
the Parish Tip in Hagg Lane was put before the Council the condition of which
had worsened since the tip had been handed over to the R(ural) D(istrict)
Council and after discussion it was proposed that the Sanitary Inspector be
acquainted with the facts and asked that same should be kept in a tidier condition.”
