RESIDENTS in Weaverham say they are bitterly disappointed with the section 19 report put forward by Cheshire West and Chester Council in response to 2019 floods. Jerry Marshall, who is a member of the River Weaver Navigation Society and a Sandy Lane Flood Monitor, said his group have a five point plan for flood mitigation. The section 19 report was released this week ahead of CWAC s cabinet meeting on March 17, at which the 19 recommendations contained in it are expected to be endorsed. Jerry said: On behalf of local residents in Weaverham, I’m bitterly disappointed with the Section 19 report. Overall, and it s easy with the benefit of hindsight of course but it would have been much better to have a ten day report a few weeks after the October 2019 floods.
