Hastings Borough Council has a duty to keep our streets clean, clear of litter, refuse and dog mess.

We the undersigned are calling on the council to do more to keep the streets of Hastings and St Leonards clean and tidy and within a timely manner, in accordance with the Litter Code of Practice under the Environmental Protection Act 1990.

Whether it is communal bins, persistent fly-tipping or dog mess issues - the council must act now and urgently. Working closer with our waste partners to ensure household refuse that is collected is done so properly, on time and regularly, alongside pushing for improvements within the street cleaning team.
