  • Looking forward to another week of no lighting in this area and living with an outside area of complete darkness. Please do something to resolve this issue before someone gets injured and more antisocial behaviour continues every night.

  • Private resident has damaged wiring for entire area. Council response is that this will be left and resolved an around a year. No temporally fix offered to keep residents safe. Have emailed council however they do not respond. One elderly resident has taken a nasty fall and still nothing to resolve this hazard. Another resident has been hospitalised due to falling again nothing has been done. Just waiting for the 3rd incident could be fatal for our elderly who are now frightened to venture outside.
