Dear Burnley Borough Council,

Hi there
Please can you clarify do you mean the Council's own flood defences and damage or for the borough?

Thanks

Hi Danielle
I need to check as I think it may be Lancashire County Council you will need to speak to.

Thanks

Good afternoon Danielle

Please see the response to the FOI you sent to Burnley Borough Council

 

I am enquiring as to how much the council has spent to prevent flooding
(from river/surface water flooding) across Burnley over the last 5 years.

 

In the last 5 years the Council has completed resilience works at Padiham
Town Hall. The cost of these flood resilience measures only are in the
region of £152,000.00 including professional fees.

 

There are significant future flood defence work projects being undertaken
by other agencies in the Borough, the money for the future scheme is
coming from the LEP and the EA/ DEFRA.   You will need to contact these
other agencies for more information.

You may, if dissatisfied with the treatment of your request, ask the
council to conduct a review of its decision under the council's complaints
procedure. Someone who has not been involved in dealing with your request
for information will carry out the review. Please e-mail or write if you
would like a review.

If, following the review, you remain dis-satisfied with the council's
treatment of your request then you may take your complaint to the
Information Commissioner at Wycliffe House, Water Lane, Wilmslow, Cheshire
SK9 5AF.

Thanks

Lauren
