The media are reporting that a new “app” for iPhones is being launched by the council to make reporting problems with graffiti and fly tipping easier. They claim that this will reduce the number of problems that residents see.
This seems unlikely as residents are already able to telephone in problems using the York Pride Action Line (York 551551 – although you now initially get through to someone telling you about “Smarter York”) or “on line” at the Councils web site.
The key to a cleaner enviroment is respect and prevention.
Once a problem has occurred then the Council response has to be prompt.
All the problems in the photos were reported “on line” on 23rd Auguast
