Discussion on locking park gates in Skegness deferred

The new Tower Gardens Pavilion is taking shape.

Councillors have deferred making a decision on whether to lock the gates of a Skegness park in the hope people will respect the work being done to improve it and want to keep it nice.

A motion was put forward at last week's Skegness Town Council meeting as part of new regulations to be imposed at the park.

It was proposed by Coun Bob Walker who said: "The motion was that we as the Town Council have the new Pavillion and Tower Gardens gated so that it can be locked each night and then reopened each day, timings to be decided by the council this to be part of the new rules and regulations."
