13 July (Part 1) - Another Bexley Council IT failure

Today’s plan was to provide a brief report on Bexley’s Children’s Services Scrutiny Committee where new Chairman Lisa Moore officiated. Alas it is not to be. I can stream an Ultra High Definition video with Dolby Atmos from Amazon Prime but once again Bexley Council cannot do better than webcast a succession of still pictures accompanied by seriously broken audio with periods of total silence thrown in for good measure. On two different devices over two days.

The Agenda suggests it would have been a very brief and probably uninteresting report.

That other IT failure of sorts, the censoring of two Planning Applications on a property some wrongly attributed to Leather Bottle Man has been partially corrected. 23/01420/FUL is back and it doesn’t amount to much. An outbuilding is to be incorporated into an already approved rebuild of 2 West Heath Road.

I’m not sure why there has been so much correspondence over such a long period about that address. Presumably it demonstrates the fear that residents to the north of the borough have that they may be living next to the next Leather Bottle or 238 Woolwich Road.
