Several broken paving slabs on public access, 28th April
There are several broken paving slabs with some concaving inwards creating a 5cm tripping hazard. This pavement is public access to my privately owned property which very soon will have many pedestrians walking up and down when viewing my property to rent, including small children. My estate agents have informed me that this is council owned and indeed extremely hazardous.

Obstruction to double pram, 27th April
Please may this be forwarded to the relevant person,
My name is Bekki Aubrey, a mother of two whom lives in willow close, Odd Down.
I am writing in relation to the gap that connects Fosse Gardens, Sulis Meadows to Ridge Green Close, I have attached a photo, its the lower part of the footpath at the end of the steps.
I recently had my second baby and therefore, had to purchase a double pram due to my children both being under two. I frequently attend playgroups, shop at Sainsbury's and get the bus to local locations, which requires me to walk my pram through the gap mentioned above, this has been my way of walking since I moved to this area three years ago. As the longer route (pram accessible) is to walk along the whole of Sulis Manor Rd, along the main road A367 and down Mendip Gardens, I certainly don’t mind walking, but this is a significantly longer route with a toddler and a newborn.
Unfortunately, due to the size of the gap, I have had to use this longer route as my double pram does not fit through the gap. I believe this gap should allow access for double prams?
I am aware, that this may potentially be to stop bikes etc, but as a owner of a house in Willow Close, I am fully aware that this isn’t working, as we have recently had frequent visits from police in the area due to the motorbikes that regularly drive (a selection of them, very fast and irresponsibly) in the grass area behind our house.
I thought I would at least contact yourselves to see if there is any potential that something could be done to allow myself and others with double prams access through this gap, as it only falls short by the length of a wheel.
Yours sincerely, Bekki Aubrey

Near electric green box, 26th April
Two three weeks ago at night between 2-4 am that was Friday. I heard someone really loud noise from outside. There noise comes from car which arrives to the Oval and parking opposite the car park. I heard voice female, conversation between passengers and sound of plastic bags with some bottles. Early morning when I was going out on the public pavements I saw four bottles of fastgas. Until today they on the pavement.
There fast gas you find next to green square - The Oval / Ash grove
I wish public take more responsibility of fly tipping and in future self make a calculation: how much cost Council for collection you rubbish and how much be safe for repair roads in you Town.
My message to the female who threw it away the bag with bottle's: I wish you each earlier morning for next 13 weeks had for breakfast Dairy Spray Cream with piece of chocolate and one big banana , Enjoy !
