Chesterfield Borough Council Review

Many thanks to Steve Ashby in the licensing team on getting us up and running so quick on a Friday afternoon with our new DPS , very much appreciated and highly recommend Matthew @ the galleon steakhouse

HQ of Chesterfield Borough Council and seat of local government for the borough of Chesterfield. The town hall is the main office for Chesterfield Borough Council, a number of voluntary sector organisations, and from 2018 (the building is currently undergoing internal renovations) the home of the Register Office for births, deaths, and marriages. The building is of historical significance - built in 1935, it's a replica of Stormont, Northern Ireland's parliament building, a scaled down size. It isn't as large as Stormont, but has a near identical frontage. It has a number of meeting rooms that can be hired by external organisations. The meeting rooms are walnut panelled, and the decoration of the town hall has an Egyptian theme, with the ceilings decorated with lotus flowers. The furniture of the meeting rooms was specifically designed for the town hall. Disabled access is via a ramp down to the basement for the voluntary sector organisations based there, and a ramped entrance to the rest of the building, both at the east end entrance (the end closest to the town centre). At the top of a hill, on Rose Hill, the town hall overlooks Shentall Gardens and has a great view. There are four pay and display car parks close to the town hall, two directly behind the town hall, with disabled parking close to the rear of the building. There is limited on-street parking at the front of the town hall.

This is about Stonegravels recycling.
The workforce there are a credit to the Council.
They are very efficient and are really helpful.
Nothing is any trouble for them.
Great team.
Thanks for the help over the years.

Hats off to the Neighbourhood team for Grangewood. Reported that a bird had flew into an abandoned flat and was in distress as it couldn't get back out. Bit of red tape to get through but entry successfully attained and the bird was freed without injury. Took a couple of days but a happy ending!

An excellent afternoon of remembrance. Thoroughly well turned out by the good people of Chesterfield.

Council OK, however their leisure centres are very disappointing. They are expensive for what they have to offer. I joined over a week ago and have since cancelled my contract due to lack of services (even though advertised). Unable to contact council via email as the 'mailbox is full'; I expect professionalism from our local council, however this is severely lacking.

Never known such a bunch of incompetent, non attentive people with attitudes that cannot be bothered to help anyone or read anything properly. I've had people sent to my property twice with the council not organising it with me or even telling me. No cares for safety of tenants either Awful.

absolutely disgraceful!...I hit a pot hole on the 21st December causing a punctured wheel..the hole had obviously been there along time. I went through their resolver app to claim compensation. this app is a farce. now their saying I can't claim because the hole had been reported on the 19th!..what has that got to do with me hitting the hole..there was no cones..indications or warnings the hole was there..ABSOLUTELY FUMING!

I needed to have removed an old 3 seater sofa. Looked on line to see who I contacted to have this happen. Saw that I had to telephone and speak to arrange this. It could not hve been easier, the young lady was helpful and its all arrange More

Not open on a Saturday. As I work all week I cant get there

Excellent company to work for, really look after you and proud to be an employee

My daughter rang up emergency council last night due to having no heating or hot water, ( water was pouring out from her boiler ) the person on the other end said it wasn't an emergency & to call council tomorrow. this was on the ( 07/12/20.) in this cold weather. she is disabled & has learning difficulties. rang them up today and they said it could be up to 24 hours, if there not out by 5pm today it will be tomorrow. this is disgusting so please tell me what actually now classes as an emergency nowadays.

After visiting the sports centre with my grandchildren for the first time we went to the cafe for food after swimming we couldn't purchase anything as my 2 youngest grandchildren have food allergy. Shame on you no allergen menu, I thought it was law for food retailers to have an allergen menu!
