Paul Hindley Paul Hindley was a councillor with an office at the Weatherfield Town Hall . In 1988 , he made arrangements to retire and rehouse Percy Sugden , and hire a replacement caretaker for the Community Centre . When Percy failed to respond to three letters from Hindley , he was summoned to a meeting at the Town Hall , where Hindley told him the news in person . At first Percy dismissed the issue , but when he was told that he had two weeks to vacate the Community Centre flat and that alternative accommodation had been found for him , he took the matter more seriously , but was no less indignant , making a dig at civil servants and council procedure . A week later , Hindley and Deirdre Barlow negotiated with Percy when he locked up the centre in protest of his " sacking " . As Percy had refused to live in the tower block where he was being rehoused , he had barricaded himself in the flat until the council changed its mind . By this point , Hindley was losing patience with Percy and banged on the door to get his attention . Percy let the pair in when they told him they had good news , although it wasn ' t quite what he ' d hoped for - Hindley had got him a ground floor flat in Rosamund Street , remarking to Percy that he had to pull some strings to do so . Percy was still unsatisfied , on the grounds that a street - level flat would attract trouble - making children from Bessie Street School , and accused them of putting a " rattled old donkey " out to pasture . Nevertheless , he agreed to take the flat once the renovations were complete , and dumped himself on Emily Bishop in the meantime .
