July 2008

• Councillors urge public to keep them informed - 14th July 2008
  Councillor Mrs Ros Fox and Councillor Martin Smith, at a recent Branch meeting of the Scarborough and Whitby Conservative Association, urged members of the public to telephone the various departments of their local council whenever a problem arises.
  Councillor Fox, in discussion about the "Scarborough in Bloom" competition stated that, "Members of the public have so far been very kind in reporting incidences of graffiti, in order that our Anti-Graffiti team might remove it. However, there are still plenty of areas of the town that still suffer from graffiti, and we would like the publics help in identifying problem areas so that we might tackle the problem together."
  She also suggested that people might ring into the Borough Council, and report these areas. This will allow the Borough Council to keep on top of any problems, and hopefully help deter the vandals altogether in the future.
  More information on this can be found on the Scarborough Borough Council Website, or by clicking here.

• On a similar vein Councillor Martin Smith recently asked members of the public to inform the Council of any issues with the traffic management systems in the town. He stated, "Often our teams will go out and look for problems, but occasionally something might be missed, for example, a broken bulb in a traffic light. If members of the public contact our traffic management teams they can usually act very quickly to rectify any problems. In helping our teams know where problems are, the problems can be solved quickly and help minimise the disruption to the public at large."
  Councillor Smith thanked all the members of the Borough that have taken the time and effort to report problems such as these to various departments in the Borough Council, and asked that people not feel afraid to provide feedback about these issues to the Council in future.
