The system used for rubbish/garbage collection in your local area is not working properly. This is causing problems for you and your neighbours. Write a letter to the local council. In your letter: – Describe how the rubbish collection system is not working properly – Explain how this is affecting you and your neighbours – Suggest what should be done about the problem

Dear Mr Smith, I am writing
this
letter with reference to the issue people are facing because of garbage not collected properly in our residence. Even though waste-collecting persons on weekly basis collect rubbish from all apartments, the main problem is the disposal of collected rubbish.
Also
, there are a very limited number of public dustbins in our residency due to which people litter garbage here and there on the streets. There has been an increase in the number of contagious diseases in the
last
2-3 months because there is no proper management of waste. The collectors throw all the garbage in the open field near the public park. People going to the park in the morning and evening come in contact with mosquitoes resulting in an increase in dengue and malaria cases in society.
Hence
, I would request you to find a suitable dumping yield outside the city
Secondly
, the waste collection should be on alternate days from buildings if it is not possible on daily basis. The weekly collection gives

and a lot of diseases.
Lastly
, it would be great if you can order concerned authorities to place more public dustbins across the streets not only in my residence but all across the city. Yours sincerely, Mansi Luthra
