I have great admiration for what Lynne Featherstone and the Lib Dems are doing in Haringey.

STROUD GREEN THE VICTIM OF ACCORD'S NOT SO GREEN HABIT
|
|
15.12.03
Liberal Democrat councillors are calling for the Council's waste management
contractor Haringey Accord to explain why they have left so many green waste
bags scattered around the Stroud Green area, uncollected for days on end.
Lib Dems say that the green bags, which contain swept leaves and
biodegradable litter and carry the Accord emblem, have been left uncollected
from sites around Stroud Green including Florence Road & Albert Road. Local
residents have expressed their annoyance to Cllr Lynne Featherstone, as the
bags are causing an eyesore in local streets. The Lib Dem Parliamentary
spokesperson says that the standard of street sweeping is certain to be an
issue in the forthcoming by-election.
Lynne Featherstone has contacted the Council to find out why the bags are
not removed promptly, and asked for action.
Lynne Featherstone comments:
"Accord's lack of organisation in picking up these bags is causing a lot of
unnecessary distress to local residents who feel their streets are becoming
dumping grounds.
"I have written to the Council to ask for this issue to be resolved. I will
be keeping a close eye on the situation and ensure that the Council and its
contractor pull up their socks and end the nuisance they are causing to
residents in Stroud Green."
