Skelton Parish Council : Grass Cutting 24/25 Season

Whilst City of York Council has confirmed its intention to reduce ( 6 cuts per year down from 12) or in some cases eliminate its grass cutting service meaning that grass verges, amenity areas and some council owned parks will become overgrown this summer, Skelton Parish Council wish to reassure residents that it will continue to contract to perform 15 cuts covering all Parish Council owned open spaces such as The Village Green, Crooking Green, Pasture and Orchard Field, Sycamore Close, Playing Field, Playground. Pond area and the Cemetery.

It may well be that there will be a noticeable difference in the height of grass between that cut by City of York Council as opposed to that cut by Skelton Parish Council.

City of York Council have no objection if residents wish to weed pavements and cut verges in front of their homes.
