1,776 not out

The last week and a half a small band of Shepton people have challenged the Town Council's decision to spend £15,000 on a feasibility study for the Civic hall/hub thingy.

In a short period we have amassed 1776 signatures to ask the Town Council to rethink the whole notion of the civic hall.

Shepton People are angry at a time of public sector cuts and reduced incomes the Town council should be so indifferent to these concerns instead they want to spend money on a project no one execept a very few wants.

Tomorrow evening the Town Council meets.

Does the Town council has the courage to admit it was wrong? That will be interesting.

I desperately hope the Council admits its mistake and then moves on, to start the process of trust rebuilding with the people of Shepton.

Update tomorrow.
