Two public toilets at East Beach and

Campfield Road were set to close

under the Independent Party, Labour

and Lib Dem Administration.

Following a campaign led by local

Conservatives with the support of

West Shoebury residents, these

proposals were dropped.

An alternative budget was put

forward by Southend Conservatives

which would have seen Council Tax

frozen and saved 11 litter bins in

Shoeburyness from being axed.

This Administration, as part of their

budget proposals, wanted to axe the

textiles collection service. Following

Conservative pressure, a collection

service has been retained where

residents can still use any surplus

white sacks they have or put textiles

in carrier bags for collection.

Car parking charges have risen on

average by 11%. The Administration

wanted to raise car parking charges

at Shoebury Common by 20%.

Following pressure by local

Conservatives this plan was

scrapped.

Many residents have complained

that the parking situation around

Shoeburyness High School has got

worse. Local Conservatives have

launched a questionnaire with local

residents to see what parking

measures they would like to try and

solve the problem.

Your priorities are our priorities

Tony and Derek campaigning against the

proposed 20% increase in parking charges

at Shoebury Common.

We support the review at Shoebury Common If a better scheme

comes out of the review then it will receive our full support .

Although there is a need for new homes we will fight to ensure

unsuitable plans for new homes and developments are opposed.

Our weekly waste collection service is under threat we will oppose

any plans to change the weekly collection service.

11 litter bins have been axed in Shoeburyness we will continue to

oppose the removal of any litter bins in Shoeburyness.

The Leader of the Council still threatens to close public toilets in

Shoeburyness we will fight any plans to close our public toilets.

Tony COX Derek JARVISThe local choice for West Shoebury

As local Shoebuyness residents we are

standing to represent our local

community.

We will stand up for local residents and

always put West Shoebury residents

first.

Right: Public Toilets Under Threat The Administration proposed closing two public

toilets in Shoeburyness. This proposal was

dropped following pressure from local

Conservatives but the Leader has not ruled out

closing them in the future. A Conservative

Council will keep our public toilets open.

Right: Cuts To Council Services The administration have scrapped white textile

recycling sacks, axed our waste contractor Cory,

taken over 1 Million out of the waste budget

and as part of the budget, made 5 Envirocrime

Team officers who investigate fly tipping and

issue on the spot fines for dog fouling

redundant.

Above: Car Parking

Charges Up Despite claiming that high

parking charges hit local

businesses, parking charges

have been raised on average

by 11% and by 20% in the

Town Centre. A Conservative

Administration will freeze car

parking charges and pledge

to reduce them where

possible.

Left: Council Tax

Increased The Administration have raised

Council Tax by 1.95%.

Conservatives would have

frozen Council Tax by taking

the Government Council Tax

freeze grant.

Left: 11 Litter Bins To Be

Axed in Shoebury This administration plans to

remove 11 litter bins in

residential areas. Some

Administration members

suggested removing even

more.

Above: 25% Of Kids To

Go To A Failing School After 95,000 was taken out

of the School Improvement

budget, this Administration

plan to make it acceptable for

a quarter of our children to go

to a poor or failing school.

The Independent/Labour/Lib Dem plan for Southend

The Independent Party, Labour and Lib Dem plan, supported by

UKIP, is one of wasteful spending, more borrowing, higher taxes and

charges. The Conservative way is one of delivering high quality value

for money services that Southend can be proud of. This is the choice

at this election.

Cuts to Services, higher taxes and charges

Remember: UKIP voted for these cuts
