Bit of a moot point what a Parish Council's role should or should not be.
Fact is, neither they nor the local community had any warning.
Linton falls under Hambleton District Council and I am not expecting any discount on rates. Even if we did get one, a saving of £30/year is hardly comparable to a loss of £30,000 on a property valuation.
I have two estate agents coming round next week yo give me a property valuation. We were looking to re locate to CGY next year and I had already started the move ball rolling. It will be interesting to hear their thoughts on a community of 2000 having 500+ single male asylum seekers ( of questionable background and intent) free to roam the streets.
Intention was to beat the flood of Annington homes hitting the market and depressing prices but now this too. An expensive rethink may be on the cards.
