Further to my item yesterday about the disgraceful graffiti vandalism of a resident's van and other damage in the early hours of Saturday morning, I had a very useful discussion with our local Police Inspector this morning about these incidents. I am reassured that Tayside Police is putting in considerable resource to apprehend those responsible. Residents are rightly sick and tired of this sort of destructive and pointless behaviour.
I had an update from the Head of Waste Management this morning about the bin collection situation in the West End, as follows :
" ... there are still pockets of work to be completed in the West End as there is in other parts of the city as a result of the bad weather. Our plan of action this week is to start Monday's work and complete that before we move on to Tuesday's collection service. Where we cannot get refuse collection vehicles in streets, and there are some which are still impassable, we will look at alternative ways of getting refuse collected. ... our plan is to try and get all domestic waste routes completed by the end of the week."
