A RECENT letter incorrectly referred to Coun W Kellett as the “Mayor of Durham” (He is in fact the Chairman of the County Council).

There is no Mayor of Durham and nor will there be until the city is given back its council.

The absence of a city planning committee is only too obvious given some of the ridiculous decisions made by the county planning committee on which no city resident sits!
