  • "Are the mothers with prams too stupid to move the bins out of the way? Poetic justice really considering how inconsiderate they are with their mega-buggies in general, and especially in shops."

My bin bother

10:03am Wednesday 22nd February 2012 in Letters

I COMPLAINED to City of York Council on January 20 concerning wheelie bins blocking the pavement after refuse collections, forcing mothers with prams to negotiate roads to pass the bins because of pavement obstructions.

I have received a reply saying the complaint has been passed to the refuse department and another reply from the council’s frontline department after I had enquired as to why no reply after ten days, telling me to be patient they need ten working days to investigate – a month on still no answer.

But then again I only pay rates to them to do a job properly why should they bother what I say or think?
