Councillor gets extreme grass slope cut

Councillor Judith Elliott has succeeded with a long term campaign to get the steep grass slope on Corporation Street cut. The slope, which is at a 45 degree angle, is difficult to cut with conventional grass cutters.

Councillor Elliott said "I brought a Council Officer out to look at the area before Christmas to stress the importance of getting the slope cut. It has taken some time because it needs special equipment to cut the slope safely."

The slope has now been placed on a grass cutting programme for the future.

Councillor Elliott added "I am grateful for the help from Council Officers especially the way they have found a solution to a very tricky problem."
