LETTERS: Debate over home of town council

There has been much speculation and debate regarding the possible sale and future use of Mirfield Council offices.

There has been much speculation and debate regarding the possible sale and future use of Mirfield Council Offices. 
The fact is that the offices are under utilised with the front section of the premises remaining empty. 
The overall appearance is an environmental detraction, with the blackened, rotting window frames and boarded up window and door panels. An eyesore and a disgrace.

Regarding rumours of the future use of the council offices, they are obviously unsuitable for use as licensed premises due to the lack of parking space. 
According to recent rumours, Tesco, which is closing unprofitable stores, presently has a lease on the old Black Bull building. 
This would fit in nicely with the image of Wetherspoons.
