Neat streets ----in Church!
 

Neat Idea For Neighbourhood (from Lancashire Telegraph)
A long overdue tidy up.
When I lived there 6 years ago, and while my house was for sale, I collected a carrier bag of rubbish from the street front every day (in a vain attempt to give the impression that the street was a reasonably nice area :rolleyes:)

This consultation document may be of interest to residents of Church if you are not already aware of it.

There is one available for the Rhyddings & Straits Conservation areas but I have not been able to find it yet.

I see this 'neat streets' idea has gone to the dogs. Dumping on back alleys is starting to make 'em look like the tip again. Some people disgust me :cursing:

Dog fouling and litter are slightly better but still loads of room for improvement.

Re: Neat streets ----in Church!
 

Litter has been terrible with this wind!! Some genius thought they'd put a bag out on friday and the combination of the local yobbos with the wind made a right mess. I had to pick a load of plastic bottles, cardboard and cans up from the front of the house. :mad:

Re: Neat streets ----in Church!
 

Well I guess it is no more. Went to the shop yesterday and 4 out of the 5 back alleys I passed were disgusting. What is it about some people that just think anything they dump on their back alley doesn't become a concern of theirs anymore?
Dog-fouling, yet again, is at epidemic proportions.
Litter too is unbelievable.

Some people are just disgusting and obviously have no sense of pride in either themselves or their surroundings. :(

It would help if some folk knew what week to put out recycling & when to put out their bins:rolleyes:There was a 3 piece suite dumped out the other week,the next day the kids were pushing each other around the streets on it......Church,lovely place.

It only takes a phone call to the Council office if they dont know

Re: Neat streets ----in Church!
 

Totally agree Neil,but to some folk that seems like hard work.Have a guess sometimes seems the better option round here:mad: And thats after the councils spent thousands of our money having leaflets & calenders printed to inform us.

Re: Neat streets ----in Church!
 

I think its like anythink else Maxwell, the council can only do so much, its then up to the individual to do their bit, but they don't give a stuff:mad:
