LEGAL action put forward by Shaftesbury councillors could cost ratepayers up to £30,000. Heard during a town council General Management Committee meeting in January, Shaftesbury town clerk Claire Commons explained to councillors that the authority is at risk of judicial review, for “its handling of councillors in meetings”. She told the committee that Councillor Peter Yeo had sent a legal letter to the authority, which also “comes at a cost”. The authority has also recently received a letter claiming “costs and damages for breach of personal data”. Cllr Yeo has previously claimed that the council breaches European law when himself and Cllr Karen Tippins are excluded from meetings.

PLANS are beginning to take shape for two new car parks and an all-weather 3G football pitch in Shaftesbury, but costings behind the £450,000 scheme have received criticism from councillors.
As previously reported, Shaftesbury Town Council threw its support behind the introduction of long-term parking near Tesco in Coppice Street, and a second permit holder car park on the nearby football club site. As part of an interconnected project, it was also approved that a 30-year £350,000 loan would be underwritten by the council to back plans to develop a 3G facility at Shaftesbury Football Club. A further £100,000 would be granted to the football club’s project from the council’s general reserves account.
