Campaigner hits out after council took 'years' to ask developer for community cash

A campaigner has accused Liverpool Council of taking 'years' to invoice a developer to pay money that benefits the community.

The Mount Group are behind the Browside scheme in Everton. Building work stalled on the site last year but has now resumed.

Liverpool Council, in response to a Freedom of Information request by local man Kevin Robinson-Hale, has revealed that it invoiced the Mount Group in May this year for a £60,000 payment that was due 18 months from commencement. The ECHO understands that invoices are not routinely issued unless it emerges that the developer has not paid the money in line with the agreed payment schedule.
