Rejected petition Kerbside clearance/maintenance General greenland maintenance
Years ago we had a machine that went round the roads and cleared away any weeds/growth/ debris from the kerbsides at least once a month. This has been forgotten about for sometime now, overgrowth is everywhere, causing clogging/backup and flooding. It looks awful too, can we reinstate this service?

I would like to ask that as we are out of the EU now can’t we concentrate on our country and reinstate services that make a difference to our country for the better. The weather is getting worse, the rain is getting heavier and our drains are not copping and therefore we need to clear as much debris as possible to keep the drains running clearer. I strongly believe this will make a difference, even if it is only minor it could help those in need. I am speaking from experience.
