Earlier this year I was contacted by residents in Hesleden regarding their concerns about the safety of the former garage site at Harold Wilson Drive and Hillcrest Place.
At the time I suggested that once funding had been secured and options had been fully costed I would organise a consultation event in the village to allow for residents to decide which option they preferred.
I will be meeting in the first week of September with officers from the East Durham Area Action Partnership (AAP) to finalise arrangements for the consultation event which will take the form of a drop-in session in Hesleden where residents can see for themselves the options available.
I will ensure that the event is advertised adequately closer to the time but please let me know in the meantime if you have any comments or questions in relation to this matter.
