I attended the meeting at Gowerton on Mon 16th June -with respect to the invited speakers I didn't find their contribution very helpful Cllr Richards blamed everybody but the milkman for the situation and got into a hissy fit and lost the plot and respect of the residents by arguing with one of the invited speakers.Swansea City Council sent out the extortionate demands and they are responsible for the situation NOW - a matter as important and as life changing as a massive hike in ground rent was deemed reasonable to be a delegated decision by officers. I cannot accept that Cabinet members were totally unaware of the action and inevitable consequences
