Some residents are afraid to leave their homes
Residents in the county should take more responsibility for clearing gullies outside their homes to prevent flooding, according to a county councillor.
“Call me old fashioned, I’ve got a drain outside of my house and I live on a tree lined street and you know what I do when the when the leaves come down and block it,” he said. “We need residents to take more responsibility for clearing gullies outside their homes,” said the executive support councillor for environment and economy.
Conservative Councillor Dyer’s comments were in response to Labour member Councillor Kev Clarke, who had reported issues in his area.“One of them was clearly blocked with leaves but when I went on Fix My Street or Hit and Miss and I explained to them it was a gully that was full of leaves the reply was ‘it’s not our responsibility to sweep the channels’.”
