A Bright
New Beginning I
f winning a full public consultation for everyone affected by the recent speed bump debacle wasn’t enough, we decided after recent events it was time for a brand new Residents Association too.
We will project a united, strong, consultative voice to our new City Council. This way we can ensure the Council understands what Thorpe Bay residents views really are on the big issues. This includes planning and our street scene. It is only by working with different partners we can move along together. For too long this has been missing.
