The Storm Christoph floods at the and of January affected residents of Weaverham and Acton Bridge on Sandy Lane, Weaverham Road and Acton Lane. We have been trying to help the residents as much as we can, Paul and our independent colleague were on site at the beginning helping with residents, ensuring they could be moved to temporary accommodation. We have continued to work together on this matter and have raised our concerns with Cheshire West & Chester Council and the delayed release of the report into the 2019 floods.
At Budget Council on Thursday 25 February Charles and Paul voted against the 4.99% Council Tax rise.
