Neighbourhood Management

South East Area, 16/06/2008

We are currently rolling out a programme called Neighbourhood Management which is a fresh approach to public service delivery.  This involves joining up local services and making them more responsive to local needs within a small recognisable area.  The core services covered by Neighbourhood Management arrangements are:

  • security (control of nuisance and general supervision);
  • environment (maintenance and repair of damage to public areas);
  • cleansing (street cleaning, refuse collection and rubbish removal)

In October 2007 a residents' survey was conducted within the Langside and Linn and Pollokshields and Southside Central Community Planning Partnership areas to inform local action plans and provide a robust baseline for measuring success.  The results of these surveys are available below.
