Last nights Twerton Pact

I was as disappointed as others that turned up for the Twerton PACT last night that it did not take place due to unforeseen circumstances.

I am in touch with the Police and am suggesting that they organise another PACT meeting as soon as one can be organised giving sufficient time for residents to be notified.

Once I hear back from the Police about the new date I will publicise it.

Linley Close garages update

I am pleased that Curo have indicated that they will have the Linley Close garages cleaned up within two working days and that they will be actively investigated the fencing in of the recycling area.

I now await to see the action promised.

Hanna Close Twerton

I have asked Curo to clear up the mess that has been dumped behind the garages at  Hanna Close.

I was horrified last week to see furniture and old car parts dumped in this area, I am hopeful that Curo will soon have this cleared up and that they will find the culprits.

If you know who has dumped in this area then please let us know.

Redland Park Numbering name plate

I have asked that the numbering name plate is removed and repaired alongside 122 Redland Park.

This numbering plate is in a poor condition and is dangerous so it's repair is urgently needed.

Linley Close Garages

I have written to Curo asking them to clear up the mess that has been created at the garage area at Linley Close.

I have also asked that the burnt out recycling bins that have been left for over a week now are removed and that this area has the fencing around it that we agreed some time ago put urgently in place.

It is important that this area is secured before the bins are returned.

Graffiti Twerton High Street

I have again chased up the issue of the graffiti on the wall above the former Blockbuster store and
have asked the council to ensure that it is removed as soon as possible.

Removing Graffiti from a private building always takes longer than normal as permission has to be granted from the owners.

In this case change of ownership seems to be delaying things.
