Public Toilets and Rubbish


There were two reports in todays papers relating to public provision of services. One was about the availability of a public loo in Moneys Yard and the other was a report of the fly-tipping that goes on around North Kesteven.
At the moment councillors are involved in an exercise to reveal all the grot spots in Sleaford (areas where prople drop litter and costs a fortune to remove). Galley Hill is one. Fly tipping is on the increase in NK and this is impacting on the quality of life and also costs money (our money) to remove. We have a problem: who is causing it I cannot say but I have my suspicions at generally.

The news says that a cheer went up at a local meeting when it was announced that the Moneys Yard toilets were not closing. Not quite as I understand the intention, in the longer term, is to develop Moneys Yard for someting else.

The present ones will need renovation at some stage, as all such facilities do: so as a Town we need to look at the long term and decide when and where we are to provide such facilities.
 
Keep an eye on these as measures, maybe drastic, may need to be taken.
