Sadly Jan, that is very true and I really can't see the Town Council and Town Councillors being able to be as successful as a full-time Manager would be.
There is no disrespect towards the Town Council, or the Councillors in this statement, just being realistic.
Charlie, your comment about that view is so true, it is an absolute disgrace and one of, if not the most awful "views" of Dover.
I do know there is a planning application being worked on, but have no idea when that is likely to come to the Planning Commmittee.
Paul (Scotchie) advised on here a while ago, that the building on the left (just in Bench Street) used to be Shakespeare Hotel and was very grand indeed.
The building should never have been allowed to fall into such disrepair; section 215 should have been invoked years ago on many of Dover's buildings - it wasn't sadly, so we have what we have, resulting in areas of our Town needing serious work on.
I don't think it can just be left just for an enterprising developer to eventually pick up on a run-down building and area; the owner should not/cannot be allowed to just leave it.
