You wanted pubs to be good neighbours | We introduced a voluntary noise management scheme for landlords |
Local people should get priority on the housing list | We added 'local connection' to our criteria for housing |
There were too many empty homes in the borough | We worked with owners and used incentives to bring more than 100 long-term empty homes back into use last year |
You wanted more activities for young people in Shepway | We introduced free weekly football, boxing and basketball lessons for 14-24 year olds at The Manor, Shepway Youth and Community Centre and installed a parkour on Shepway Green. |
You wanted action on people parking on grass verges | Additional signs have been put up around the borough advising motorists not to park on grass verges |
You wanted action on issues with dog mess | We launched our RK9 campaign which aims to encourage responsible dog ownership. Since December 2014 there's been more public engagement, leading to increased action against irresponsible dog owners. Follow the RK9 Facebook page for information, events and current legislation. |
