OPINION: Tip closures not good enough

DEAR News Of The Area,

AS a resident of Woolgoolga I am writing to express my dissatisfaction with the service provided by Coffs Harbour City Council.

For the past two weekends the Woolgoolga rubbish tip for green, general and recycling has been closed.

This is proving extremely inconvenient and a waste of my time, when you load up your ute and drive to the facility, find it closed then have to return home to unload.

I am not the only one, you can see numerous vehicles traveling up there with their green waste and being inconvenienced as well.

There was no notice of the closure.

We have had our bulky goods collection twice a year cancelled, now we can’t even take rubbish to the tip.

This Council seems intent to continue to charge exorbitant rates and spend our money on useless facilities such as the Taj Mahal in Gordon Street rather than basic services.

How about getting your priorities right, councillors, pull your heads out of the sand and while you’re at it, fix the bloody potholes instead of planting pansies in roundabouts.

Regards,
N MERCER,
Woolgoolga.
