Mayor William Mullen

Grantham City Municipality

Grantham City

Dear Mayor Mullen,

I'd like to bring to your attention the matter of the poor condition of the streets and municipal parks of our city

I have been a resident of Grantham City for over twenty years and have always been proud of how clean our city is I was under the impression that Grantham City knew how to take care of its streets and parks However, I have noticed over the last eighteen months or so that the sidewalks have become very dirty In fact, now it is difficult to walk along the sidewalk in my neighborhood and keep my shoes clean, particularlysince no one cleans up after their dogs

Moreover, there are very few garbage cans in public places, and people are simply throwing their garbage

on the sidewalks and leaving it in our parks

I have seen a huge difference between the condition of the streets and parks today and how they were eighteen months ago Street cleaners used to work all hours of the day, making sure that the streets and parks were clean and free of garbage

I'm sure you will agree that it's important to have a clean city that we can be proud of I hope you will take the necessary steps and bring in more street cleaners to make our city once again a pleasant place to be Perhaps school students can even help clean up the city as a school project That way they will learn to appreciate that cleaning up is hard work In addition, they will not take our city for granted

I look forward to receiving your reply.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation
