chapowlo   10 #74 Posted July 27, 2012 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-south-yorkshire-18994664  If the Hesley Wood tip was a couple of years into regeneration and a colliery spoil tip then the Rossington scenario may be relevant, however, Hesley Wood is a coking plant tip and 30 years old. Rossington is an area of deprivation and the approved plans include housing, commercial premises and recreational spaces and is a pet project of the elected mayor Peter Davis. If you saw him on the Look North item the comment about climate change morons should give you the measure of the man. He is also responsible for closing libraries in Doncaster and enforcing budget cuts that have cost 300+ jobs, he is currently facing a legal challenge by the public of Doncaster over his actions.  What is important here is that we the residents of Chapeltown aren't getting any benefit so why should we lay down, roll over and let the fat cat of Doncaster (RecyCoal) make £31 million.
