UKIP councillors vote against council tax increase
We voted on next year's budget at tonight's Madeley Town Council. The proposed budget requires a 1.4% increase in council tax. Myself and Ryan Laing were the only two councillors who voted against the council tax increase.
The services the town council provides to the local community are really important, especially when Telford & Wrekin Council and the British government are cutting services. However, when 10,000 people in the borough - over 6% of the population of Telford & Wrekin - have received support from Telford Food Bank in less than two years, it's just not reasonable to put up council tax.

Woodside Avenue gritting
We have had reports of Woodside Avenue not being gritted last night.
Telford & Wrekin Council's policy is to grit bus routes which, of course, Woodside Avenue is and it is on the list of gritted roads. We are making enquiries to confirm that it is still on the list and to find out why it wasn't gritted last night.
Update: The roads were gritted twice but had evidently frozen back over again.

Appeal for help finding missing Madeley man, Daniel Hodgin
West Mercia Police are appealing for information and help to find a Madeley man who went missing in Shrewsbury last weekend.
Daniel Hodgin was at the Buttermarket in Shrewsbury and has been seen on CCTV falling and banging his head on a wall. He phoned his mother to tell her he was walking home but didn't know where he was. He said he was in an industrial estate and could see a Mini and a white wall. His mother drove to Shrewsbury to find him but was unable to.
If you have any information on his whereabouts or remember seeing him on the night - or have seen him since - contact West Mercia Police on 101 quoting reference 228 of the 23rd November.

Facebook campaign to save special Sutton Hill tree
Sutton Hill residents have started a Facebook page to save the tree planted in honour of a visit to the estate by the Queen in 1967.
The plaque and tree marking the occasion in Sandicroft are still intact 47 years after the visit but it's at risk from the council's regeneration programme prompting a local campaign to save it.
