“After contacting our parks department, the bush along this stretch of road was cut back and the area was cleared making it safer and neater. Only problem now was that this exposed all the household rubbish that had been dumped over the years,” he said.
MNW Exco decided that to give a local unemployed gentleman a chance to earn some money by helping to clean the mess up.
“We plead with residents to report any illegal dumping so that we can keep our area clean and tidy,” he said.
