Bellevue and Broughton Street Cleaning Service - Petitions (Open)
Petition details
We, the undersigned, wish to express our concern and total dissatisfaction with the street cleaning service in the Bellevue and Broughton areas of Edinburgh. The footpaths, roads and road gullies in this largely residential area of a world class city are dirty, strewn with litter, and spillages from communal dustbins, with leaves, debris and detritus lying in situ for far too long. Ankle high weeds growing out of footpaths and road gullies adorn this district. We all contend with broken and uneven paving stones in the locality.
The City Council has consistently failed over many years to devise a systematic plan to maintain a satisfactory level of street cleaning. The way the service is currently organised, executed and delivered is failing us all and requires immediate revision in the light of the lived experiences of those who foot the Council Tax bill year in, year out. We require the City Council to remedy this longstanding and disgraceful situation.
