I'm sad to hear that Cllr Terry Porter has died. I sat on several committees with Terry and our two wards shared a boundary and overlapping issues.
In all my interactions with Terry I found him to be an incredibly decent, honest and community minded councillor. He genuinely loved the ...community he represented and that was obvious for all to see.
He was a great councillor and will be missed by many.
My condolences to all his family and friends.

🌳 BROKEN SPIRAL POLE - PLUMLEY PARK
Thanks to the various residents for letting me know about the damage to the spiral pole at Plumley Park - which as you can see from the picture is clearly a safety risk.
I spoke to the council yesterday morning and they have gone out to get a... quote to repair this, and ahead of that coming back this pole will be out of use.
Once I hear further I'll let you know.
