EDITOR, The Tribune.

Following on from my letter last week about the hideous signs and more hideous shanty shacks, my invitation to the Parks & Beaches Chairman McKell Bonaby, to offer a date when he could meet with the residents in the east has gone unrequited.

I think that that letter to The Tribune has led people in the west, to ask if I would arrange a meeting for them with the Chairman. The requestor also wonders how our Government officials can find money to fly around the world, in first class comfort, to be photographed with the Pope no less, while the Seagrape trees at Saunders Beach, (the Westies sacred place), have been left for ages now, toppled over, while invasive species of vines and other plants grow rampant on this special park.

I don’t know how many Parks and Beaches are under the remit of the Authority, but surely someone checks to make sure that they are maintained with some level of decency and where unauthorised signs are erected, or where decorative trees are blown over by a gale, or the beach sand is blown across the road, someone can be despatched to rectify it.
