Rejected petition ITS NOT THE SME’s FAULT THE CENTRAL PLAZA IS COLLAPSING!

SME’s in Carlisle, small family run businesses were unfairly forced to close their doors yesterday through no fault of their own, a derelict Hotel with no ownership is in danger of collapse forcing thriving businesses into closure.

More details

A recent inspection of the unowned Central Plaza Hotel found the building to be at risk, and as such businesses and roads within the exclusion zone have been closed/evacuated, this closure is expected to last until next year. Small businesses have been told that liability lies with the owner of the Hotel as the Hotel has no owner, they have no where to turn. These are otherwise thriving businesses built on blood, sweat and tears. Forced to close through no fault of their own, they need support.
