LETTER: Grass mowing cutbacks lead to eyesores
It has been like this for a few weeks, so we asked the workmen why it had not been done. The answer was “cut backs”.
The grass is now about 12in. high, and will be twice as high in a short time. The time it would take to finish the mowing properly would be about 15 minutes.

Could it be, though, it is because of an “out of sight, out of mind” policy that the work is not done — it is not in the town centre where VIPs and dignitaries see it. I don’t think it would break the bank to pay the workmen the extra 15 minutes to do a proper job.
