Bricknell Avenue litter bins

John Fareham and John Abbott have arranged for the replacement of damaged litter bins on Bricknell Avenue. One of the bins in question looked to have been subject to fire damage and the other was just plain devastated. We therefore contacted the officers to see whether they had any suitable bins in storage to replace them; they discussed the matter between themselves and agreed to replace them. For all that these bins may still have functioned well enough as places to put rubbish, they looked bad enough to count as appalling and we felt it necessary to get new ones installed. We will of course keep our eyes open for further instances of such damage and take such steps as are practicable to repair or replace bins which have been vandalised or otherwise damaged.
