Estate Walkabouts

Wednesday saw the first of this week’s afternoons off at work to take part in the first of this year’s estate walkabouts. Unfortunately (probably due to the damp weather) there were no other residents aside from myself and the other Cllr Mckeown that joined the 3 officers from High Peak Community Housing for the walk around the gas side.

A whole range of issue’s from across the patch have been logged from untidy gardens to dog fouling and dodgy paths and over the next few weeks, steps will be taken to get them resolved.
