Garff by-election: Candidate would like to see bins across parish improved

Reintroducing 'paper services' and improving the bins are two issues that need to be addressed in Garff, according to a candidate in the upcoming commissioner's by-election. James Hewison, a volunteer for the Not For Isle of Man Windfarm group, says the main issue for residents in Lonan are the sewage treatment works and the lack of services. Residents will be able to vote from 8am until 8pm on Thursday 21 May at the Laxey Working Men's Institute or Baldrine Methodist Church Hall. The other candidates standing in the Garff Commissioners Lonan Ward by-election are James Curtis and Richard Taylor. Mr Hewison adds that he is opposed to the offshore windfarm proposals, and would try to encourage people to become more politically minded. Local Democracy Reporter Emma Draper has been speaking to him.
