Oakham High Street, Litter Bin, Oakham Town Council, Rutland County Council

Trader nearby bus stops in Oakham High Street have raised concerns about litter discarded by people awaiting buses and Taxis outside their shops.

I approached Rutland County Council and asked if they could supply a bin. I received a response we don't have any money and we clear up the litter once each day and the presence of their enforcement officers would help deter littering? The cost of a bin is a little less than the amount RCC spends on catering at one of its many civic receptions.


Oakham Town Council members will be asked to consider if the Town Council can afford to purchase a bin,
attach it to one of these posts and then ask RCC to adopt it.
