Newland Park blue bin emptying

John Fareham and John Abbott have met with local residents and officers to discuss problems with blue bin emptying in Newland Park. We thank the officer from Streetscene who came to our monthly mobile forum and faced a full bus of local residents who could not understand why, when they had taken notice of the changes to Council’s recycling policy and acted on it, their bins had still not been emptied. We also thank the Residents’ Association for working closely with us on this issue. Between us we have secured an undertaking that, in the light of Newland Park residents not having been kept in the loop, the new hard-line recycling policy will be implemented here from the next blue bin collection but one. This will give local residents time to ensure their recycling policies and the Council’s are in perfect synchronicity.
