Thursday, 17 April 2025 - 3 minutes

A candidate standing for the upcoming election in Castletown hopes to create a 'business plan' to run the local authority and would like a 'totally new' board to be voted in.

John Cringle, a former Castletown Commissioner, says a plan is needed for the closure of Market Square during the summer and for the temporary closure during winter.

Residents on the electoral roll will be able to vote at Castletown Town Hall from 8am until 8pm on Thursday 24 April.

Mr Cringle believes the town is 'disjointed' at the moment and would like to bring back some 'transparency' to the local authority.
