In Burnley Wood we as residents do a visual audit every six weeks, we note empty houses with open access and dirty back yards, we have an environmental cleansing officer allocated to the area who works with us very closely and will order in contractors to clean up the worst problems and to make secure these premises, as a result of these measures we have had 45% less complaints received by the council from Burnley Wood this year. We also recored any street light that is out and report it to street lighting who repair it the next day.
