I am writing to thank the good voters of Shrub End and Berechurch for selecting myself as councillor for their area.

It is always humbling to see such overwhelming support.

As a polite man, I offer my commiserations to the other candidates on the ballot paper.

I wanted to put on record my commitment to the residents in the community I represent, as always.

My colleagues, Berechurch councillors Martyn Warnes and Chris Pearson, and I will make sure we continue to listen to residents and put their interests to the for.

The work continues then, getting the spotlight of County Hall on the roads, paths and kerbs that are so lacking in proper maintenance, on the maintenance of our green spaces in the estates.

Also continuing in the campaign to stop this government in selling off Middlewick.

Lots of estate roads in Shrub End and Berechurch need a resurface and investment.

Councillor Dave Harris

12 Prince Philip Road, Colchester
