I was pleased to be able to hold a rolling surgery at Saint Anne's Court today.
I had a number of issues brought to my attention by residents. These included the state of the Old Cross guns public house, which was converted into flats and is now derelict and an eye saw.
Although this building is in the Kingstanding Ward I have asked that the Council consider compulsory purchasing this building if it can not be sorted out in a reasonable time.
Litter in some of the near by shopping parades, the state of some shop fronts, and the pot holes on college Road were also amongst the issues raised with me.
Clearly the College Road is like many other of our roads in that it has been left to deteriorate through lack of adequate maintenance over the last few years. Naturally because we had a colder winter than usual this time the authorities are blaming the weather for the state of many of our roads rather than their neglect.
