Helperby Walk grass cutting


John Fareham and John Abbott are working with officers to resolve issues with grass cutting on Helperby Walk.

We received complaints from local residents to the effect that the grass was becoming unacceptably long and looking neglected.  We therefore referred the matter to the officers who informed us that owing to current staffing levels the cutting frequency was currently below what was expected, but the position would improve as the grass cutting teams come closer to target grass cutting frequencies and the exceptionally fast growth of grass this year begins to slow down. We know that grass cutting issues have popped up in various parts of the ward over the past few years, in part due to staffing and equipment changes, but we will remain vigilant in a matter we know is important to many local residents and report any complaints we receive to the proper quarters.
