Birmingham's streets are getting dirtier. Even the government has criticised Birmingham for not getting it right. Labour council bosses blame government for cuts while putting a staggering £98 million into reserves.
The Lib Dems plan to spend half of this £98 million over 4 years to clean up our city. Our plans include:
♦ 2 Free household bulky collections a year
♦ End city-wide bin strikes by breaking up the service
♦ Free garden waste collections, phased in starting with autumn leaf collections and slashing subscriber fees
♦ Weekly bin collections retained
♦ Bring back special street collections
♦ Halt budget cuts to park services
♦ Halt budget cuts to street cleaning services
♦ Require refuse collectors to collect waste put out on the day of collection (no more excuses about bin lids)
♦ Flytipping - Invest properly in cameras and staff to investigate and prosecute
