Cllr Richard Millard and Cllr Andy Tree, as Leader and Deputy Leader of East Hampshire District Council, have issued a joint statement expressing their concern over potential Hampshire County Council service cuts, particularly the threat to the household waste and recycling centres in Petersfield and Bordon. The tip in Alton does not appear to be at risk at this time.
The statement reads: "We are dismayed about how potential HCC cuts could affect our residents and are committed to trying to find solutions to mitigate them.
"In particular, we do not want to see the closures of Petersfield and Bordon household waste and recycling centres, especially as we want to see recycling increased. We encourage all East Hampshire residents to respond to the HCC consultation to ensure our voice is heard.”
