Alastair Majury on Additonal Laigh Hills Park Issues

In addition to the play area being out of availability other concerns regarding the Laigh Hills park have been raised including:

1. That the area around the slides is overgrown with weeds e.g. Thistles & Nettles. Which of course isn’t great for a children’s play area.

2. That the wooden steps leading up to the slides are in a poor state which pose a potential tripping hazard. This could obviously be considered a health & safety issue and likewise accordingly isn’t great for a children’s play area.

3. Also reported that there is a considerable amount of rubbish lying around the slides including broken glass which accordingly could result in serious inquiry to a child.

Councillor Alastair Majury reported these issues to council officers and I am pleased to report that Land Services have agreed to tackle the above points. Councillor Alastair Majury also asked that the site be monitored and Safer Communities have confirmed that they will add this to their patrol matrix and back shift officers will now monitor the area.
