Ward Councillors today met with residents at their mobile Surgery at Whalley Place shops, several residents came along to speak with both John and Keith regarding issues in the Ward. Afterwards we went along to the gates of the DWP site on Moorland Road and Heyhouses Lane to look at the problems being created due to the sites non-smoking policy. The picture says it all!! We will again contact the Streetscene department at the Town Hall to request that they again speak with DWP site Managers.
The with new 'No Smoking in Public Places' laws are about to come into force in June we are going to ensure that the Town Hall has in place a robust policy to ensure that these scenes are not repeated across the Ward. Lets us have your thoughts.
