Garage area in Morris Rd and also the shrubbery area to the side (which I am getting tired of reporting and cutting back). BCC used to look after both areas but in the last few years have not taken responsibility for this. Although the rubbish was recently cleared by the community team and debris collected 2 months later by Bristol Waste, I spoke to Martin who works on this patch and he advises that this area is not part of his patch so his team doesn't keep the weeds down etc. He advised me to contact BCC to 'adopt' this area but how can you adopt an area that you already own! Please arrange for strong weed killer to be put around the garages which has not been done for years. Please also cut back shrubs etc in the area which I continually report.

I was also assured by Philip James who works at BCC that the housing officer was to visit the area. I'm yet to know if they have or not.
