INFORMATION FROM EAST DEVON DISTRICT COUNCIL - Streetscene Operations Service Pressures:
‘We don’t often put out messages like this, but due to current pressures I wanted to alert you all to the current state of play within StreetScene Operations (Grounds, parks & gardens, street cleansing, public realm, beaches and events). Streetscene are currently dealing with a high level of service demand, due to staff shortages in key areas, diversion of staff assisting with flood recovery work, and perfect growing conditions of the grass along with the on-set of the sunshine, bank holidays, longer days and more events. This means we are behind with our core work areas.
Please bear with us while we catch-up and get back on schedule. Once we are through the busy bank holiday weekend things should ease a little but in the meantime everybody is feeling very stretched and doing their best to keep services on track.
To help us track demands and provide the fastest response to issues possible, as well as avoiding unnecessary administration and waste work, please can we ensure that members of the public and everybody else report issues to us through our website or on the East Devon app. East Devon mobile app - East Devon , Website Environmental maintenance - East Devon Recycling and waste - East Devon or by emailing CSC@eastdevon.gov.uk This will get requests assigned to the right personnel / team, and processed in a timely fashion. This is the most effective way to report in to us. It also has the benefit of gathering full case details, photos, map location etc.
Please only escalate cases to named officers, managers or myself if something has not been actioned following an initial report or if the matter is contentious.
Thank you for your understanding and assistance with this and please be assured we are doing all we can to return to our normal high standards of service delivery.’
Sorry you are having a hard time I hope it improves soon
A huge thank you to the amazing Simon Durrant who has given so much of his time to help organise the music line-up for this year’s Seaton Summer Celebration 😊 Team Seaton is also very grateful to the wonderful Marek Steven for his support with publicity and for giving his time on the day to act as stage crew! 😊
Kicking off the musical entertainment on 3rd June are Sweet Black Angels - a fantastic “indie-folk” band who have supported high profile acts such as The Pogues, The Levellers and The Specials and are well known locally. They will be on stage at 4pm!
More info on the music acts coming soon but in the meantime, a few Ts and Cs for the Seaton Summer Celebration event on 3rd June.
Kindly note that the Town Council is trying to discourage the use of glass simply to avoid broken glass causing any accidents however, the Council recognises that some drinks cannot always be decanted into a reusable bottle! There will be plenty of clearly labelled general waste and mixed dry recycling bins onsite so the Council kindly asks everyone to dispose of their rubbish properly.
One thing missing from the column on the left – HAVE FUN! 😊
The weather forecast is looking very promising for half term ☀️☀️
Don't forget - Crazy Crabs will be delivering more beach school sessions on Monday 29th May. Book your places soon 😊🦀🦀
