Once again another of my constituents in Brandwood has contacted me after becoming exhausted with trying to get the council to take action.  This time it was to ask them to clean up rubbish from the back of one of their blocks on Brandwood Park Road.  The council has even been told who the perpetrator is, however they have just ignored the requests and allowed the family to chuck rubbish right out of their backdoor into a public area, spilling out blocking an access to both council and private properties. Even though rats have been seen the council have still failed to bring the matter under control.

I can’t believe city council tenants are allowed to get away with this behaviour, it’s absolutely appalling.  One council official has responded to my concerns and has been down to clean up the pathways at the front of the block, but because he’s in a different department he’s not allowed to clean up the rest.  Whilst the council are playing tit for tat, my constituents are being left to wade through rubbish every time they go out their back door.
