There is a long history here as you can imagine. For example, the post quoted on BOST’s website was made in 2009. Quite a lot has changed since then.
In the many consultations that have been carried out over the years there have been three fundamentals that have been requested by the community time and time again:
-Remove hard surfaces,
-More greening,
-More colourful planting.
The present Council contract has failed to deliver any of the above.
