Had people actually started to move into the Beattie Avenue flats?

Not really relevant but sounds so desperate if anybody is kicking their heels after lambing http://brecon.fyinetwork.co.uk/my,31297-Farming-help-urgently-needed--Llanwrtyd

and build some one person bungalows or similar in the space - a nice bit of infilling could be done there

I do not know whether this is tenant farmers in general or specific to Council farm tenants. Let us hope that Jess and Bill at least put in an appearance and at best have an input representative of the county they represent.

Or it could be Terry James/Phillip Price/Anthony Johnson which were listed on what looks like a slightly later document = undated so absolutely impossible to tell

Have we seen a PA lately for change of signage

Buchannan Farms Bosbury are mentioned in earlier pages and I am fairly certain that they form part of Council farms. Back in 2014 HC wanted to withdraw from any involvement in the Trust that is responsible for running the farms. Indeed The Following make up the current Board on behalf of the Trustee. Cllr Terry James Cllr Philip Price Cllr John Hardwick Cllr Patricia Morgan Cllr Harry Bramer Does anybody know if these people are still Trustees?

The loss of life the pain and suffering of the relatives and friends just too terrible to even contemplate and congratulations to the people who have displayed enormous courage and conviction to at last get the justice they so justly deserve. What I do have a serious problem with is how could these people in positions of authority carry this terrible burden for 27 years knowing that they have lied and been complicit in the cover up of the deaths of 96 innocent people. The cover up team (I can't call them people) have led normal lives they've climbed the promotion ladder been congratulated on a good job had pay rises married had children and probably grandchildren enjoyed festive periods over the 27 years enjoyed family celebrations . Nobody knew the dreadful sinful secret they carried with them. If they are capable of this what other shocking secrets do they carry? This is just sheer evil. Anybody got an explanation.

Funny how nobody has come on here to confirm or deny these figures - or is the public not entitled to know the true cost of this so called Link Road or there again perhaps members of the Council do not know the true cost because the figures are so inconsistent each and every time

More bad press for HC. Excellent interview from Nick Lloyd and George Dunn on Radio 4's You and Yours today http://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b0783lkl

No indeed in the HT today you have Terry James calling for the resignation of the Cons who do not agree with the sale of the farms and the Council saying they have no record of receiving notification of the complaint - mmmmmm I personally call for the resignation of the Cabinet - they hold far too much power - it's always dangerous - power goes to people's heads in a lot of cases

Wonderful lady we are so honoured to have her as our Queen. Happy Birthday your majesty.

Yet more bad press for HC Herefordshire council investigated for farm sell-offJez Fredenburgh Wednesday 20 April 2016 10:36 © FLPA/REX/Shutterstock Herefordshire County Council (HCC) is to be investigated by the Local Government Ombudsman (LGO) for possible maladministration of its farming estate sell-off after a tenant farmer lodged a complaint. At the beginning of the year the council served about a dozen tenants with notices to quit after having assured them a month before that their homes and livelihoods would be protected and transferred to the estate’s new owner. The Conservative council’s leader, Tony Johnson, who gave the assurances, told Farmers Weekly at the time that he had only been referring to Agricultural Holdings Act (AHA) tenancies and Farm Business Tenancies (FBT) would not “necessarily†be protected. See also: Council accused of ‘misleading’ tenants on estate sell-off The council’s task and finish group previously recommended that the farm estate be retained and rationalised, but the cabinet used its executive powers to overturn this recommendation. ‘Nobody has been to see us’Mixed farmer Nick Lloyd, who has been a tenant on the council’s estate for 19 years, made the complaint to the ombudsman with the support of the Tenant Farmers Association (TFA). He was served notice to quit on his six-year FBT with the end date set for January next year. “Nobody from the council has been to see us since we were served notice to quit,†said Mr Lloyd. “The only correspondence we’ve had is a tenant ‘support package’. [They are offering] £500 to each tenant for business planning or financial planning – but you’ve got to spend the £500 before you can claim it back.†The package included a list of contact details, mainly for non-council services, said Mr Lloyd, but these included organisations such as the TFA and businesses such as auctioneers “which as farmers we already know about.†Disposal plan may be too late for tenantsThe council has said tenants will be given the opportunity to buy part of all of their holdings if it does not impact the overall sale of the farming estate, but tenants will not be given details until after a disposal plan has been formulated. A council cabinet meeting last week was held to discuss the appointment of an agent to develop the disposal plan. Mr Lloyd said he feared the plan would not be ready until the autumn, leaving him and other tenants in limbo until then. “At the moment we’re carrying on, [but] we can’t really do anything and it’s very difficult not knowing,†he said. We need clarity, say tenantsTim Lane, another HCC farm tenant who has been served notice, said the council faced having land left unfarmed and houses empty if its tenants left before a buyer was found. “We need clarity. Everybody needs to know where they are,†said Mr Lane “It would be ridiculous if we all moved out in winter [when many tenancies end] and then a new owner bought the estate and everyone was off farming somewhere else.†George Dunn, chief executive of the TFA, said about 10 tenants were at the cabinet meeting last week and had been hoping for the notices to quit to be rescinded, but were told this would not happen. He said the LGO’s decision to investigate was “a great boost†for tenants. See also: Petition against council farm sell-off snowballs A spokesman from the LGO said it could not confirm or deny whether a case was being investigated, but it did have the power to ask a council to rectify an issue for all those affected, not just the individual who has made the complaint. The council has offered tenants a meeting with a cabinet member and senior manager in the next few weeks. When asked for a comment about the LGO’s investigation, HCC said it did not want to make a comment at this time.

Let us hope so but to have done what this person is supposed to have done he must have nerves of steel to stay stum about it for a year. Where's Roger lately he seems to have vanished?

Yes it is illegal to disturb bats. Bat something boxes have to be installed if a development is planned where bats are believed to be.
