Residents of Langworth, West Lindsey, continue to grapple with the aftermath of last month’s flood, which has left some without a place to stay and forced many to discard a significant amount of their possessions.
Several locals have resorted to hiring skips to dispose of damp and damaged belongings in the wake of the flood that struck on October 20, due to intense rainfall from Storm Babet.
A bid to hold a £1.3 million referendum on the Greater Lincolnshire devolution deal was rejected by county councillors, who voted to progress a deal for electing a mayor for the area.
Instead, a public consultation will be held across the region, involving residents filling in a feedback form and submitting it. The new mayoral combined authority setup will bring more control over government funding and powers around housing, job creation, and public transport, including buses.
