As December begins, this month’s Oracle promises food for thought. Concerned Thorpe Bay resident has raised the ongoing issue of sewage spilling onto local streets, expressing frustration over the lack of resolution for this long-standing problem.

In October’s Oracle, Mike Wright shared his concerns about the Council’s plans to build on a floodplain. Last month, Cllr. Cowan outlined the planning procedures, and this month, Mike Wright responds, keeping the conversation alive. It’s a dialogue that highlights the importance of our community voicing their views.

With Christmas just around the corner, Oracle’s newly redesigned website is here to keep you informed. From the latest local news to a comprehensive list of festive events, there’s something for everyone. If you’d like to have your say in Oracle, I’d like to hear from you. Let’s continue these important conversations and celebrate the best of our community together.
