A Glantwymyn county councillor has been reported to the Ombudsman for alleged harassment.

The Ombudsman has received complaints from Cllr David Price about councillors Elwyn Vaughan, who represents Glantwymyn, and Gwilym Williams, Disserth and Trecoed, and is considering whether to investigate.

Cllr Price, who is the High Sheriff of Powys this year, believes that both councillors have broken the members code of conduct and claims they have harassed him over issues to do with a caravan site he owns.

In September, Cllrs Vaughan and Williams submitted their own complaints to the Ombudsman about Cllr Price.

This follows revelations this summer to do with Cllr Price’s caravan park at his Noyadd Farm home.

In July, he was given a certificate of lawfulness for 28 caravan pitches.

Council reports showed that the site had run with 28 pitches without the certificate for a number of years, when under Caravan Club rules he was only allowed to have five pitches.

Councillors Vaughan and Williams wanted to see the application passed to another authority for a decision.
