A growing pile of rubbish on Hathorn Street is testament to some residents’ lackadaisical attitude towards their environment.
Garden refuse and other rubbish dumped on the pavement, paint a bleak picture and create a general impression of neglect.

The municipality’s communications department was contacted to determine what penalties culprits guilty of this offence would face, and if the municipality would clear up the rubbish.
Alas, no comment was forthcoming at the time of going to print.
