Madam, In answer to J Stringer's question about New Street (the Ross Gazette April 4th,) I have asked Amey to include this street in its programme of resurfacing for 2012/13.

Residents may add their weight to this request by emailing Amey on [email protected]">[email protected] or telephoning on 01432 261800.

I have also been in contact with our resident local toads about cleaning up their spawning area, again featured in your last edition.

I am making arrangements for a clean up and if anyone would like to help, they can give me a ring on 01989 563299.

Councillor Chris Bartrum, Ross
