I'm not the Only one who Sees the Need for Contracts with Local Govt - No 10 does too.

Following my recent post about the possible need for contracting with councillors, I received the following today:

Communities Secretary Hazel Blears announced plans for new 'community contracts' across England today - giving communities the opportunity to agree deals and written guarantees with their council on a wide range of service standards from tackling drug dealing on estates, bin collection, clearing graffiti and street cleaning.
