I also saw the one that came through my door, though that seems to have been very selective as to which of us residents in Hyndburn received one.

How were they distributed, and why did so many people not get them, is more the question?

Are you suggesting that residents who aren't lucky enough to receive offical corresondence from the council, should have to buy the Observer, so they don't miss out on important information?

The whole thing shouts of being a shambles...and is what I've come to expect.

Party in a brewery springs to mind.:(

I don't deal in hype, just facts.

The fact is that three quarters of residents, according to this small cross-section of people, apparently didn't receive a form they should have.

That is wrong.

Fact.

Have any of you other than katex contacted your local councillor or HBC directly over this issue? To enquire why you may have not received a letter?

Closing the stable door, after the horse has bolted.

What's the point, as in the very first post of this thread it is reported that the closing date has come and gone, and the matter is now under consideration, with the help of the returned feedback.

If I hadn't been lucky enough to be one of the few to receive a form, you can be sure I'd be calling the council, to ask why the hell my views weren't important enough to warrant me getting the chance to give my views, because I hadn't received one.

Re: Town Council forms.
 
I'm sure if its still under consideration then anybody can get in contact with their councillor and let their view be known.

Of course I'm not defending the fact that it appears people haven't received them. I don't know if they were hand delivered to the whole borough, sent through the mail or what. If the reason is with the council, then I will condemn it, but as yet I don't think we actually have a reason.

...and how would they know to do that, if they haven't received a letter, or read the Observer, which not everyone in the borough does?

As stated earlier, the letter did come from the council, headed paper, crest, the lot, so condemn away.

Have you contacted your local councillor to ask why other people haven't recieved them?

Of course they've come from council. I am not however going to play the blame game when I don't know who is responsible for them not arriving.

Re: Town Council forms.
 
There is someone else, who works for the council, checking on what went wrong and has promised to keep in touch. Will revert.

I didn't spot the form in the Observer, but was one week when I missed getting it.

Re: Town Council forms.
 
Brilliant katex, will look forward to hearing exactly what has happened in regards to this and why some people haven't received the form. I can't say I have or haven't received one myself as I've not been home most of the year.

Haven't you done a poll, to see if your parent's received a form? :D

You wicked Garinda .. :D

Suppose you could ask them Cyfr, next time you are in contact ? The area would help too.
