Unregulated Burning of Refuse, 18th July
The unregulated burning of refuse has been going on at this site for years. The regular and continual burning of who-knows-what not only causes air polution, but also most likely causing contamination of the ground and water courses in the vicinity. At times, the smoke generated from this site is so thick as to cause road safety issues for motorists using New Road. Photos taken from almost 2 miles away in Mereclough.

Untaxed Vehicles Parked on our car park by a none resident of the street, 26th April
This person used to live with his partner at 36 David Street, but he no longer lives there and now he lives somewhere on Berry Street, BB11 2LE. This person is called Shaun, he has two large vans and parks them on David Street everyday and overnight when he is not driving them. Both vehicles are not taxed and one is not insured. Vehicle registrations are EF05 CHD this has not been taxed since 16th January 2023 and it is not insured. The other vehicle is X631 DHF, this has not been taxed since 1st November 2021. This person is taking up car parking space on our car park which is used for residents and visitors. One is parked outside no. 32 David Street and the other is parked at the bottom of David street and this would cause an accident if we get any snow as he is parked near to a residents vehicle, meaning it is only small tight area to drive past in order to get onto the car park. There are also 2 run-down caravans parked on David street that look an eyesore and they looked like there are beyond repair and they have not been used for years, they belong to 38 David Street and the other belongs to 36 David Street. It is such a mess and we want to keep our area tidy and we don't want neighbours to start arguing about these issues.

Inappropriate Community Service on children's playground, 23rd March
We visited Towneley playground today with our children, to inappropriately find 'community payback' workers litter picking on the children's playground but also playing on the children's equipment (zip line).
It is inappropriate to have people convicted of crimes (regardless of the offence) to be carrying out community service on a children's playground. It is reasonable for community service to be carried out in other areas of Towneley, such as car parks etc - away from the playground, and the playground upkeep be left to paid staff or volunteers (not community service).
Whilst it is not unreasonable for them to have a bit of 'down time' and enjoy the facilities (if age/size appropriate), it is not reasonable for them to be playing on children's equipment with children around whilst in the process of carrying out community service unsupervised.
There was a supervisor in the surrounding vicinity, however he was a considerably distance away, out of site, away from the playground area near the toilets, staring off the bridge into the river, not supervising anyone....
