Council replaced my front lawn - whose responsibility?
Hi all, some of you may have had your front lawns replaced with gardens as part of a council initiative along with the bike lanes. I dont usually have time to manage this but given the current circumstances i could look at this now. doing my front and back garden is already a lot normally. I understand it was my responsibility to mow my front patch of lawn, but will the council send people out to manage these gardens? A passerby (standing 2 metres away of course) advised that the council manages this, although i have never seen them.
Thoughts?
Cheers.

We definitely need homes that are fit to live in but there are often frustrations when it comes to getting consent to modify your own home.
