holiday homes
While pondering the situation re massive financial drain's on local council's funds I think I may have a solution.
As we all know most raggies stay in harbour and use the local amenities as every home does. I'm considering asking my local councillor to forward a motion at the next meeting which means boats like this are treated as holiday homes . At least this way the local community wont have to subsidise the elite few who can, I'm sure afford to pay .
Quite frankly this situation has gone on for far to long it's about time people accepted their responsibility to help pay for the local amenities where they keep their holiday homes. Holiday homes pay half the rate of tax compared to people who live there so it's not to bad.
