Dumping dread for Daffodil Place dwellers
Homeowners say their efforts to have municipal intervention have failed thus far.
Despite their best efforts to keep their street litter-free and avoiding criminality, those same issues have begun to plague residents of Daffodil Place in Lennoxton.
An open piece of land at the top of the cul-de-sac is the latest victim of illegal dumping, and ‘sketchy characters’ are said to frequent the overgrown area nearby. Already, residents report security lights and cameras being stolen quite regularly.
Residents are also concerned for the safety of the people – particularly school learners – who often take a shortcut through the area.
Watch below to see the situation on the ground:
The matter has been escalated to the municipality for action, but residents say that no help has come their way to date. Response will be published once it has been received.
