doing more damage than good. Next year we could take that on ourselves.Anthony said the gardener has started to clean the moss at Beech Court as itwas not being treated and he’s been told its being done this week along withweeds on the stairwells.Peter wanted to update that his environmental improvement idea wasaccepted. Mark Kerr came and had a chat with him personally and came tosee the residents. They carried out the work this week and they have putbushes in the boarders that run alongside of the building, the front of thebuilding and the roadside. It looks very beautiful and Peter was veryimpressed with how much they did. However when he proposed this it was fortwo reasons one was to brighten up the project and the other to stop footballbeing played in the central area. Kevin Blake came out to have a look butnothing has been done yet about the football issue.Anthony said he would mention it to Mark Kerr, so it’s the green area in frontof the cycle shed it probably needs a scan to find out what underneath.Peter said people keep playing football at night in the dark it’s not well lit butstill people play. Peter told some kids of that it was private property and youcould get into trouble for trespassing. They said where’s the sign and therewasn’t one.Amanda asked is there a no ball games sign?Peter said yes there is but it took 3 years to get one and then they put thecycle shed in front of it!Anthony asked does it need moving then? I know certain members of staff arenot in favour of signs but I am I think it does make a difference.Peter said the problem being if you live there the noise of them kicking the ballconstantly against the wall is very disturbing.Anthony said if you want more no ball games signs then that is something wecan look at if you ring our customer services number they can log it and getToby to sort that out for you. Peter Brown would authorise it.Peter requested it would be good to have a private property sign so at leastyou can point it out to trespassers.Anthony agreed to certainly look into putting a notice up to identify that itsprivate property.Peter thanked Anthony and said every little helpsSimon asked what’s happening with the stock condition surveys?
