Willow Wood Residential Park

Wyldecrest Parks (Northern) Ltd have raised an action at Livingston Sheriff Court against West Lothian Council disputing the Willow Wood site licence conditions recently imposed by the Council.  According to Wyldecrest’s own recent newsletter, Wyldecrest claim that the conditions impose a ‘new restrictive licence which could lead to an increase in pitch fees for residents’.
The Wanderer understands that the matters in dispute concern the Council’s requirement to supply snow clearing services and the current one–way road system.
Residents will recall Wyldecrest’s letter earlier in the year when they solicited support from the residents for such action declaring that the licence conditions could mean an 8-10 per cent pitch fee increase.
At that time, the Residents Association declined to give support to an action which was directly against the interests of the residents and particularly when the WWRA had campaigned for many years for snow clearing services and the maintenance of the one way system.  One reader likened the request to ‘Asking turkeys to vote for Christmas’
Aftera preliminary hearing in September 2012 a further hearing took place in January 2013 and a full hearing has been provisionally scheduled for August 2013. In the meantime throughout the winter of 2012/2013, Wyldecrest kept the park supplied with salt and happily no major snowfall necessitated snow clearing.
