BOGUS BUILDERS TARGETTED
“We’ve never been against incineration
of waste” said Cllr.
Gareth Bacon “we
simply didn’t want an incinerator in our
back yard and fought hard against having one for sixteen years”!
Well now everything has come full circle and Bexley Council having spent over £1m fighting the
incinerator project have signed a twenty five year
long contract with the owners Cory Environmental Ltd to burn up to 70,000 tonnes of our waste
which starts on the lst January 2011.

Thanks to a massive effort from residents our rubbish is sorted and paper for example earns the
council up to £50 a ton.
Plastic bottles are recycled now and glass is as well.

Council officer Mike Frizoni told the Chronicle
Bexley residents had achieved a remarkable record
recycling 50% of their waste well ahead of the
planned targets.

Despite the heavy local opposition from both residents and politicians from both the Labour and
Conservative parties everyone now seems to accept with good grace that it is the place for Bexley
to take their waste rather than the landfill site at
Rainham.
Transporting up to 70,000 tonnes of
waste will mean at least 14,000 extra vehicle movements a year.
Access by road will mainly be via the
Bronze Age Way to Picardy Manor Way then to
Norman Road and the marsh site of the incinerator.

Greenwich Council trading
standards officers were joined
by the police and officers from
the government’s specialist
scambusters team to run spot
checks on builders across the
borough.

Spot checks were carried out on builders
working on private homes while others were
stopped driving their vans, at DIY stores and at
building suppliers.
They were questioned about
their identity and qualifications and asked to
provide documentation of contracts they had issued to clients.

During the day trading standards officers also
spoke to property owners and residents about
building work they were having done.
They
were also given information about their rights to
cancel contracts they had signed for goods and
services.

Investigations found much of the work to be
unnecessary while the costs were unreasonably
high.
The trading standards officers also found
elderly and vulnerable people were facing four
or five hour sales pitches and badgered into signing ten-year finance agreements where the interest amounted to much more than the cost of
the work.

Councillor Maureen O’Mara, Greenwich
Council’s Cabinet Member for neighbourhood
services, said: “If residents want work doing they
can find a reputable builder through a Good
Trader Scheme.
I would also urge householders
to contact trading standards to report any concerns and encourage legitimate builders to report their concerns as dodgy operators are
putting people at risk of crime and rip-offs, as
well as lowering the good name of the building
profession.

Eighty year old
wins jackpot!
It was a special night at a local bingo club in
Bexleyheath when a lucky local player scooped
over £30,000 on the High 5 jackpot.

The winner, an unnamed 80 year old woman
from Woolwich was playing bingo with her
friend when she won the full house prize of
£6,500 - and was shocked to find she’d also hit
the High 5 jackpot, taking her winnings up to
over £33,000.

Duane Curtis, a spokesman for the club commented on the win: “The lady who won is a regular at a Woolwich club and decided to come to
Bexleyheath with her friend to play bingo in different
surroundings.

This enormous win follows the introduction
to the Bexleyheath club of the cutting edge
new High 5 game which offers a unique
chance for customers to play for a rollover
jackpot.
With better prize money and even
more chances to win, the linked High 5 game
heralds the future of UK bingo.

Bexley miss out of
teaching awards
Not one education professional in Bexley won
anything in this years Teaching Awards.

The nearest to Bexley was Greenwich where
Steve Agnew from Eltham Hill Technology for
Girls won The DCSF Award for Enterprise.
Perhaps next year!
