Steveb,
Last time we were also criticised for not organising our own poll despite the council organising one for the whole community.

No poll will accurately represent the views of the local community but we were asked to respond to the council within 7 days of the options being presented. There does appear to be a general consensus amongst the community and that is worth presenting as part of our argument. This is not just the view of 14 people who met at my house on Tuesday, but a larger group of people.

I woul be disappointed if the mayow felt that he had to organise a public cunsultation to decide if the community preferred 1,2, or 3. I think the preference is very clear.
