WITH reference to the skate park in Chippenham, surely the solution is to get Skate in Safety to come up with proposals for reducing the noise from a skatepark since the only objections have been regarding this.

Once SIS have done that there would be no

reason why the skatepark could not be put back in the obvious place, i.e. the original site in Monkton Park.

I was unaware that the whinging residents of Sadlers Mead had been paid compensation for the disturbance. I suppose that is what is frightening our councillors, but if the noise problem was solved, there could be no further objection on these grounds.

I think we should all remind ourselves that the park was given to the town for the use of all its residents, not just those who seem to regard it as their private back garden.
