Garff MHK says recent rainfall brings back concerns
Several families who live on Glen Road in Laxey still aren’t back in their homes, after the major flooding incident last October.
That’s according to Garff MHK Martyn Perkins, who was reacting after more flooding in the area last week.
A heavy overnight downpour saw more than 40mm of rainfall in under two hours, less than a year since Laxey found itself in the headlines across the British Isles.
Mr Perkins says the effects of that incident are ongoing, never mind more recent floods:
May sentence for man who threatened to stab neighbour
Evidence sought for Area Plan inquiry
Traffic lights in operation by Palatine Health Centre
Disruption at Ronaldsway airport following incident with light aircraft
Hopes for better working relationship between government and hospitality sector
'A lot of work to do' on low income housing
