    a load of BS… I’d not heard about this but had noticed everywhere in the road / area the verges that used to be perfectly manicured and trimmed, were completely overgrown, ugly, picking up litter and seriously encroaching over onto the paths…

    it’s SFA to do with biodiversity and everything to do with not wishing to spend money….the DCC are funded by taxpayers, but the same DCC sees the the hand out for more €€€€€€€ from the taxpayers yet we are now getting less services from them in return… then they disingenuously feed us the biodiversity line… absolute lies… what do our politicians say ? Nothing that I can see !

    a neighbour decided today to cut all of the ones around here, fair play…

    what next, street light blows, the residents association will have to engage a private company to come and replace the bulb…or shimmy up a ladder themselves ? Maybe the environment can be used to excuse away the DCC responsibility for doing that ….don’t want to send a crew in a polluter of a vehicle….

    if the DCC are pulling services, yet charging for them… no reduction in LPT…what are they doing with the money they are saving…. Which must be significant… man hours, vehicles, diesel, parts / maintenance ? 👀
