Mochdre Commerce Park A local authority’s “shaming catalogue of errors” led to a contract that never should have been signed, for a building that was never fit for purpose. The mistakes surrounding Conwy county council’s £3.6m white elephant project to site an HGV depot at Mochdre Commerce Park can now made be public. It’s a sorry tale highlighting a lack of leadership, policies ignored or misunderstood and no one being held to account for organisational failings which permeated the authority’s project management. Conwy county council’s CEO Iwan Davies called the episode “highly regrettable” at a virtual governance and audit scrutiny meeting on Monday, as he outlined the measures he hopes will prevent anything like this happening again.
