  • The weeds are waist high, making it difficult to access the car parked on the street. We pay taxes, therefore expect the council to play their part in keeping the streets clean, neat and tidy. Last year they did not spray the weed killer and as a result the weeds grew back in two weeks. We have been tolerating the out of control growth for a year now, it is absolutely unacceptable to be living in a street that is in this shameful state. It seems like the council are adopting the mentality of having a careless attitude. However, those of us who have standards do not appreciate this lapse attitude as we care about our surroundings. The area looks worse than a third world country, I’m afraid. I have called previously about this, the reference numbers are 14341264 and 14339289. Since the council have failed to fulfil their duty, and even upon reminders have not taken action, the residents as a community have the right to live in a well kept street, therefore collectively we can take this matter further as the first point of contact has unfortunately failed.
