  • Following a review of your enquiry, we have determined that the matter does not currently exceed the councils threshold for immediate action, or there is no legal requirement to resolve at this time (for example, Tree issues such as leaf, fruit & seed fall, sap, bird and other wildlife issues, light & TV reception. Parks issues such as long grass which falls within the cutting intervals, bin emptying which falls within the scheduled frequency)

    As such, we thank you for bringing this matter to our attention, but unfortunately there is no further action that the Council will take at this time. We will continue to monitor the situation and take the necessary steps if and when the issue does meet the Councils requirements for immediate attention.

    State changed to: No further action
