Ainsley Area Resident Association Meeting

First Meeting of the newly formed association met on Monday 21st April 2008. Some people seemed quite nervous of each other as some had only really just met. It was nice to really meet some new people from our estate that I would probably not have met before or probably ever. Hopefully more residents will attend future meetings but the turnout wasn't too bad at all. A variety of ages of people which is always important. The local Lib Dem Councillors attended together. I only really met Alex Foster last week. He seemed a really personable man and a pleasure to meet. Gary Long has been our councillor for some time and is a very knowledge person and always has time for local people.
We are mainly trying to get an open space owned by the school opened for public use as it has fell in to disrepair but because of legislation, inter-department funding and liability seem to be rather big mountains to climb. We will have to wait and see.
