Mowing Berms
I can arrange all the berms to be mowed for a gold coin. That is if there are complete streets and there are no obstacles like parked cars and bitsy gardens.
Cutting back overgrowth would be extra, trimming back pathways the same. Get onto your local councillor to free up the funds to do these jobs. Our Mayor graciously gave a contract to City Care to fund a couple of boys with whipper strippers to spend eternity to address a few bad paths.
We need to stop contracts that should be local being given to business who pay minimal wages.

Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
59.5% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
26.2% No, individuals should take responsibility

14.3% ... It is complicated
Addictive Eaters Anonymous
