Getting things done – Victoria Park #dundeewestend

Residents have highlighted to us their concerns about the poor state of maintenance at Victoria Park’s Rose Garden.


Fraser is pictured at the Rose Garden and we raised this concern with Neighbourhood Services at the City Council.

A senior environment management officer has now updated us as follows :

“I agree the area is not up to where we would like it to be but we will have the borders and grass tidied up over the coming weeks with winter works planned to carry out pruning, tidying up of paths and surrounding areas.”


Getting things done – Tullideph Road and City Road #dundeewestend

The community notice board at the junction of  Tullideph Road and City Road is in a sorry state.

Michael is pictured at it and it needs repaired.

We raised this some weeks ago and are now pleased to advise that the City Council has confirmed that an Order for repairs has now been raised.
