28.12.2011 Park Litter
Several complaints over the past 3 or 4 days from residents about the litter in the Village Park. Since Dean left we CFYA we have had a problem with litter not beeing cleared as often as we are used to. CFYA have been contacted to request they ask litter pickers to patrol whole park rather than just the main play area.

14.12.2011 Village Green
The artists, and CFYA Horticultural officers met with VPRA to discuss the problems caused on the lower green. Although not ideal the artist has tried to cover over the larger ruts. CFYA will ensure that the correct remedial work is done as soon as possible in early spring.

Work is ongoing on Black Bobbies putting in the new artistic features despite churning up the green and the paths.

12.12.2011 Lower Village Green
The lower green has been badly churned up by the people putting in the new features on the Black Bobbies Nature Reserve. They have undone all of the good work they are doing down there by the irresponsible actions driving a JCB along the wet areas on the green
We have been in touch with Stockton Council and they have assured us the green will be restored to its former pristine well manicured state.

03.12.2011 Damaged Footpaths
Another success for VPRA this week although not in our immediate area. One of our reps out walking in Stainsby area spotted some badly damaged pavements and photographed then reported them to CFYA. They were inspected within 24 hours and repaired within 48 hours. Well done to CFYA technicians for reacting so quickly.
If you see any damaged pavements or potholes then report them to CFYA by e mail, phone or call in the Library. You might save someone having a bad trip or fall.

Some good news to start the month checking SBC Planning Portal. The change of use application was refused so at least for the near future we will not have the issues from a takeaway.
