Dear Darlington Borough Council,

What is the staffing structure of your Environmental Services Department from management down to frontline staff, please indicate the amount of people in each role (Refuse collection, street cleaning, grounds maintenance etc).

What roles are carried out and the number of vehicles/staff in role, example 1 van with two 2 men emptying litter bins, 3 men each on 10 bin wagons.

Is the town/borough divided into any areas and have dedicated teams to each area?

Are staff trained in more than one area of work such as a grounds maintenance worker being able to drive refuse collection vehicles or a refuse wagon driver being able to drive a road sweeper?

I thank you for your time and I’m looking forward to your request. I take a keen interest in the hard work your said department puts in.

Yours faithfully,

Mr Smith

Dear Darlington Borough Council,

Does this mean that the refuse and recycling and gardening/grounds maintenance aren’t employed by the council? As they aren’t on this list.

Yours faithfully,

Mr Smith
