I am inclined to agree with Deputy Buckley. This looks to be a very well laid out site. Problems arose when the council moved in first. I live in a council estate and I know what happens when there is no communication between the council and residents. However, as Deputy Buckley has said, there seems to have been no end of communication going on here.

What was the reasoning behind demolishing the houses in the first place? What was planned then and why did it take so long? Why, in the context of a housing crisis, were houses boarded up for so long?
