A potential change for how Rochester would fund future sidewalk repairs was discussed Monday, hours before the next step was taken toward an estimated $1 million in assessments for work to be done by the end of the year.
“Most people already think it’s the city’s responsibility,” said city council member Nick Campion, supporting a move away from direct assessments for sidewalk repairs.
PJH announces investment in three new sites 24 May, 2021 SHARE Bathrooms, appliances and sinks and taps distributor, PJH has invested in three new regional distribution centres in Enfield, Thirsk, and Bristol, bringing a significant expansion in its Next Day Delivery Service to retailers.
The new Enfield, Thirsk and Bristol PJH sites offer 22,000 sq. ft, 3,000 sq. ft and 27,000 sq. ft. of warehouse space respectively, with further plans to expand the Thirsk site to 10,000 sq. ft., later this year.
The vast capacity offered by these three new sites will enable PJH to expand its Next Day Delivery Service, which has experienced considerable growth in demand in recent months, as well as logistical benefits such as reducing the number of deliveries out of its Cannock central hub, relieving site congestion, and improving efficiency.
