Last Meeting 12/6/2024
work on trees and woodland has stopped for the bird nesting season. The timber previously felled is being cut-up and put in the wooded areas to enhance the habitat for insects.
Chain Saw licenses- OK. (MBC) has agreed to the work being done.
Gunnergate Lane fence: the new timber and existing fence has been painted with donated green wood stain to blend them in.
Planned work: there is a need to follow-up with MBC about timber supply. New boards for paths measured and awaiting confirmation and costings
An average of 3 or 4 bags of rubbish continues to be collected each week; together with trolleys rounded-up.
There have been no large items of fly-tipped materials recently.
Since the previous meeting there has been no progress with Middlesbrough Council as the long-term contract is not finalised. It was felt this should be pushed to ensure that arrangements are set-up in time for work to be carried-out at the earliest date possible this year. Funding is secure for the work.
Plans being made to work with local schools to remake existing bug hotels from the start of the next school year
