Weeds

I was disappointed to see this year that so many weeds were left growing in gutters and other channels after being treated with weed killer. I raised the matter with the environment department and highlighted, in particular, the condition of the streets in the Dawson area. In response I received the following information:
 
‘I can confirm that we undertook the normal planned two treatments of weeds across the city this year. We are aware that this has not been as effective as normal in a number of areas and will be reviewing this again for next year.
 
With regard to the weeds in the channels in the Dawson area, these are now too badly impacted to deal with through the use of weed killers and we are therefore making arrangements to have these areas physically cleared over the next 2/3 weeks.’
