Gary's Six to Fix for Sandgate & West Folkestone

Local Lib Dem Gary Fuller has outlined his six to fix if elected to Shepway District Council today.

Gary's six priorities for Sandgate & West Folkestone, as well as Shepway as a whole are:

• 20MPH speed limits in all residential streets that wish to have them, as well as near all schools, putting residents and children first.
• Better mobile phone coverage to reflect the changing needs of internet users locally, especially young people and professionals.
• Replacing all outdated street lighting with greener and more efficient LED lighting, along with removing all rusting stumps.
• A proper business and tourism strategy for Sandgate, that recognises how Sandgate has evolved in recent years.
• A proper local housing strategy that preserves larger buildings and delivers the affordable new build we need.
• Proper access to free talking therapies for Shepway residents, in place of currently inadequate signposting.

Commenting, Gary said:

"I want to see improvements in Shepway begin from the ground up. We need a safer district, improved services, affordable housing, and increased wellbeing for all residents. My six to fix represent just a few of my personal priorities if elected to Shepway District Council today."
