Your local Conservative team are demanding action from Liberal Democrat-run Stockport Council to urgently fix our grids and gullies, following over 2 years of neglect since the COVID-19 Pandemic. Local residents are frustrated that grids are not regularly maintained or when they are reported, this is rarely followed up by the Council.
Not only does this neglect of our grids and gullies risk severe flooding and the devastation this poses for local people, it is a slap in the face of Stockport residents who pay some of the highest rates of Council Tax in the country. The Liberal Democrats hiked Council Tax this year by a further 4% and yet appear to have no plan to deliver the basic services we pay for.
Your local Conservative team are standing up for local residents and demanding action. We are calling on Stockport Council to:
- Publish a full maintenance plan as soon as possible
- Invest In a proactive repair and update programme for our drainage system
- Improve reactive maintenance and ensure residents reports are acted upon
