Councillor Chandler thanked her nominator and seconder and undertook to do her best to promote the Borough as an attractive place to visit, work, and live. She referred to a recent article that had been published in the Daily Telegraph that had painted a less than flattering picture of a visit to the town; she suggested that the Council’s self promotion in this regard had been poor and she wanted to improve that.
