Your issues – March casework

Certainly another very busy month of casework of issues spread across 13 distinct policy areas.

These are the issues you raised with me – your concerns.

In joint first place was fly tipping and road safety. These two issues are consistently, month on month the main subjects of concern.

For fly tipping it is a constant battle with several areas in particular being hotspots. The Council cutting bin services and reducing service at  Barrowell Green has not helped.

We are working with the Police to tackle speeding and in the process of setting up a ‘Community Speed Watch’.

The third issue is parks and includes a range of issues from maintenance, repairs, litter and provision of facilities. With the Skatepark being the fourth issue with similar challenges.

Thank you to everyone who has contacted me.
