Waste bin emptying

John Fareham and John Abbott have secured the emptying of overflowing waste bins at the Bricknell Avenue/Hotham Road North shops. Diversion of staff to other duties – the crew were diverted to Cottingham Road because of the new surge of students – caused a breakdown in the normal emptying cycle whereby the bins are emptied three times a week on Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays. We now understand that the bins have been emptied and will look at the possibility of increasing their capacity to cope with the demand partly created by students from Kelvin and Wyke. It goes without saying of course that if the bin-emptying cycle breaks down again we will not hesitate to take the matter up.
