I wholly agree with Linda regarding the recycle area looking an eyesore. I think the suggestion about a designated area becoming a key access only recycle point a great idea. There's a few ideas which the Barbican have adopted and implemented which could be used on our Estate a good idea, I think it'll be a smooth transition, and will stop late night/early morning disturbances.<br/> I'll make an appointment with Mr Jones, which I will then give feedback to his response.<br/> <br/> Many Thanks</div>

<p>Hi Linda. Am seeing that its all very well for a LFB officer to say that this area is 'ideal' for recycling, when he does not have to put up with the inconvenience caused to residents. As Sue said, a complaint should be put in. She has put in an alternative suggestion. As I said, on Friday, there is a Residents' Meeting, and posters will go up tomorrow to give details of this. This will be a good opportunity to raise these concerns, and also with our newly elected Councillors, which Sue…</p>

<p>I know that one of my fellow Committee members expressed concern about the location of the recycling area when he accompanied a LFB officer around the Estate last summer. According to the letter to all residents, dated 13 June 2016, from Laurence Jones, we were told that the Fire Officer was 'satisfied' that this area was the most appropriate for recycling due to good ventilation.

<p>I know that one of my fellow Committee members expressed concern about the location of the recycling area when he accompanied a LFB officer around the Estate last summer. According to the letter to all residents, dated 13 June 2016, from Laurence Jones, we were told that the Fire Officer was 'satisfied' that this area was the most appropriate for recycling due to good ventilation. He advised that the other recycling point, under Crescent House, be removed, so the Estate only has just the one recycling area.<br/>I was led to believe that the recycling area was cleared on a daily basis. It appears that some people are coming from outside the Estate, in that case, to use this as drop off point. That is certainly not fair to residents. I don't believe the Estate Office will relocate the recycling area, for the reasons stated above. However, as much needs to be done as possible to minimise inconvenience to residents by inconsiderate people. </p>
<p>It might be an idea to express these views at the forthcoming Residents' Meeting this Friday, 21 April. Or, maybe, to contact one of our newly elected Councillors, for their help.</p> Please make a complaint.

Please make a complaint. A couple of months ago I suggested to the Estate office that they could use the redundant space behind the present area for a proper recycling area like the ones in the Barbican which residents have a key for, items are properly recycled and it is not an eyesore. It would also stop the scavengers. If you complain there is more chance of action.<br />

Sadly there is not much that can be done about engines left idling other than education. It is actually illegal to leave your engine idling for more than a minute but no one seems to know. I joined Vehicle Idling Action and now regularly ask people to switch off and most do although some are just rude.
