Estate Walkabout - with the Chief Executive of High Peak Community Housing

Last Thursday afternoon saw a walkabout take place on Gamesley with
the chief executive of High Peak Community Housing Sharon McCambridge.

An interesting exercise similar in a way to the walkabout that took
place with the joint chief executive of the council Simon Baker last
year that gave myself and the other Cllr Mckeown a good opportunity to
raise a whole range of concerns with Sharon and look at ways in which
some issues can be tackled.

The walkabout also gave an opportunity to catch up with Frank Woods
who has took over from Lara Ford as the neighbourhood coordinator for
the estate. Many locals will remember Frank from his previous
occasions working ok the estate and I hope people will give him a warm
welcome.

One issue flagged up at both this and the previous 'chief executive'
walkabout but still unresolved at the moment was with regards to the estate
cleaner which I hope that now both of them have seen the problems that the
changes have caused will lead to a solution sooner than later.
