DEPUTY LEADER GAINS ANOTHER CRIMINAL CONVICTION

- By JOE LOCKER Local democracy reporter

THE deputy leader of Ashfield District Council says he is proud of his record and will be continuing in the role, despite a petition calling for his resignation following another criminal conviction.

Councillor Tom Hollis, who represents Huthwaite and Brierley for the Ashfield Independents, admitted three counts of being the owner of dogs that were dangerously out of control at a Mansfield Magistrates' Court hearing on June 24.

They all related to incidents in Sudbury Drive and Kedlestone Close, in Huthwaite, on December 12 last year.

The 32-year-old councillor, of Yew Tree Drive in Huthwaite, also pleaded guilty to obstructing a police officer at his home address on January 9 this year.
