Dear Sir Following further questions to County Durham on Brown Bin Collections I received an email on 16.11.16. This confirmed that it was to be a “public feedback consultation and will take place June/July 2017”! It would seem that they intend to follow previous garden refuse collection dates for 2017 – that is starting at Easter. If you are not happy with this contact the County Council, and speak to your County Councillor. I will endeavour to keep you informed of the actual consultation dates as these things are not well advertised. Yours sincerely Andrea Bergg
