Dear Editor,

Last April the Lib Dem Council ran out press releases that they had a plan to renovate the long term vacant properties on Prescot Drive and Prescot Road, Fairfield after years of deliberate neglect .

Cllr Bradley gave a promise all would sorted out within 6 months of him taking office.

So what has actually happened,?

This week another working party meeting was convened and to be presented with just another set of draft plans which were so considered they were passed around the table and taken away after the meeting.  

Every week thousands of residents drive by Prescot Road to see this buildboard for dereliction .

The worst thing this is not a case of market failure,  it is the result of neglect by the public sector agencies, council and housing associations, who have knowingly  bought up and emptied properties despite the fact they had failed to allocate sufficient monies to restore these buildings. Our feeble Lib Dem Coucnil has sat back and let it happen.

The reality of "city of culture" in many of the working class / terraced communities is a city council dedicated to mass dereliction
