5) Paved areas, paths, drives and car parks cleared of debris and litter fortnightly between 1st April and 31st October.

6) All grassed and paved areas cleared of leaves and litter monthly between 1st November and 31st March.

7) Grids over storm water drains cleared of debris when necessary.

8) Hedges, shrubs and climbing plants trimmed, pruned and cut back as necessary, with debris removed, to maintain shape and condition and prevent encroachment on grassed or paved areas or windows.
