I can think of a few.

Refuse collections: The poor collection of our refuse & the way that the council have ridden roughshod over us & giving us such a crap collection scheme.
We are NOT getting value for money or even what we have paid for.
The pathetic attempt at a token recycling scheme is a joke.

Liesure facilities: Lack of facilities for our youngsters and I DONT mean those that are under 5 I mean those that are over 9 & no longer want to play on swings.
Our older kids need facilites that are local, not a skateboard park on the other side of town. They need more to keep them entertained & out of trouble.

Parking: The serious lack of good affordable parking facilities.
It may be OK if you want to come shopping for a couple of hours but if you actually work in Burnley you cannot afford to or even find somewhere to park your car for the day.
It can often be preferable to go shopping to Blackburn instead of Burnley.

Now mine...

Adult entertainment: Strip bars & pole dancing... not enough clubs offering this. :D

Fishing The canal has always been a superb venue for fishing in throughout the country, Burnleys stretch is disused, neglected, polluted & full of crap.
