	Crap Cycle Lanes
		Croydon Council's approach to the London Cycle Network seems to be a matter of taking the money and running away from the issues that really matter.
		Croydon Council have failed to take any notice whatsoever of national government guidance on these matters.
		The response from the council's so called "cycling officer" to my complaints was to blame the cycle lanes on a request from local resident, and the poor standards set by the London Cycle Network Design Manual.

		Were Croydon funded in the same way, that would amount to £64 million a year extra for local services or could be equivalent to halving our council tax bills.
		If Croydon received the same Government grant per resident as Ealing — a council which the independent watchdog, the Audit Commission, says is very similar to Croydon — we would have £40 million a year extra for local services, or council tax bills could be reduced by about a third.
		If Croydon received a fair deal, your council tax would be considerably lower and it would also be possible to invest more in local services.

	Named and Shamed (via CobWeb/3.1 planetlab1.isi.jhu.edu) (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
		Since then Croydon Council and Sutton and East Surrey Water (who apparently own the land) invested £130,000 building a floodbank and culvert to prevent this happening again and fenced in and gated the area so there is no access to the general public.
		It seems that Croydon Council is determined to push forward with its proposal for building an arena at the Gateway development on Dingwall Road.
		This is being done in the hope that the owners, and Croydon Council, will be suitably "motivated" by their sense of shame and resulting public pressure to clean up those areas that have been “named and shamed”.

		The Council had carried out inspections under the building regulations but had failed to notice that airbricks of half the specified size had been installed.
		The Ombudsman found maladministration in the Councilâs failure to observe that the wrong airbricks had been installed which were therefore in contravention of the building regulations.

	Finance (Croydon Liberal Democrats)
		In 2004-05, Croydon had the second-worst record for uncollected Council Tax in the country: over £9 million went uncollected.
		Whilst the Council Tax should be replaced, until it is, it is not fair on the vast majority of honest tax payers that some do not pay.
		This will provide a service to the public and be used by council staff to record and alert co-workers about instances of graffiti, fly-tipping and other actionable events.

		And when we have got all this sorted out to my satisfaction you should be aware that I intend to go back to my original complaints about the danger from the risk of rot to my floors, and pursue that matter just as vigorously.
		Croydon Council, Run by Labour Party councilors / councillors / that are perfectly happy to allow Council Officers to break the law, lie or otherwise act corruptly so long as they donât have to do anything about it.
