PROGRESS SO FAR

07-03-2008

The Camden Council has decided to remove the trees. An e-mail was sent requesting the reasons for that decision and in order to find out if the council will fix the wall or not.

16-11-2007
A contractor has provided a specification which includes costs to repair the wall which are acceptable to the Council. Ms Nasir-Lawal is waiting for a report from the Council’s Agricultural Team on what further movement/growth might be expected from the trees that originally caused the wall to collapse before the repair order can be raised. Ms Nasir-Lawal will be able to update us on her return (22nd November 2007) with the expected date that the works can start on site.

Mr Pettinger have spoken to Dawn Aldred, patch manager today who advises him that the present situation is that Asmau Nasir-Lawal, building surveyor has been onsite and has specified the works and needs to meet with Dawn to agree the exact works with the contractors. Mr Pettinger have no further information on this matter.
