Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing
this
letter to express the distressing situation that the community of Primary Garden is facing due to the faulty rubbish collection system.
Garbage
is usually collected and thrown away, every alternate day at the dumping yard allocated to the neighbourhood.
However
, for the past week, we noticed that the
garbage
collector’s lorry did not pass by our area to pick up the trash. The accumulated waste that has

through the week is posing health threats to the community. The pungent smell of rubbish is seeping into people’s houses and
as a result
, children have started feeling sick from breathing the contaminated air. I would like to suggest that the local council looks into
this
matter urgently. Kindly send over the
garbage
collector to our area as soon as possible. In the long run, we propose that a monitoring schedule be incorporated into the system.
Such
enhancements would assure people that their local area’s
garbage
will definitely be picked up in a timely manner. Thank you for your cooperation. Yours faithfully, Evgeniy Omelyanenko
