people to participate in improving their quality of life.

Like many of us, I was really angry when the Council

scrapped the Green Waste collection. I believe that the Council’s policy on this is frankly nonsense and I promise I will continue to lobby on your behalf to have Green Waste collection re-introduced.

I am constantly trying to get the Council to

collect waste on time, collect plastic bottles & cardboard and get the promised wheelie bins

to those people as quickly as possible. Please let me know if you have any problems in this area.

Waste Disposal

Let's keep South Somerset clean and tidy. Fly-Tipping is a constant problem especially to get it removed quickly. Let me

know if you see any and I will badger the council to remove it.
