In your letter •Describe how the rubbish collection system is not working properly •Explain how this is affecting you and your neighbors •Suggest what should be done about the problem

Dear Sir or Madam, My name is John Cena, I live in the York neighbourhood with my wife and kid. The reason I am writing
this
letter is to address some issues that we are facing when it comes to garbage collection in the area and request solutions for these deplorable problems which are making the region uninhabitable. Some weeks ago we noticed piled-up trash around the whole neighbourhood and, practically, on every street that has a house facing it. Now, the situation is unbearable
due to
the fact that rubbish is all over the courtyard and, with it, comes disease and animal pests.
This
is a pressing situation. The current condition is dangerous and unhealthy for everyone nearby. Some neighbours and I believe the issue started when some waste collectors were relocated to another location, far from our reach.
Additionally
, current waste collector trucks are smaller and slower than they used to be, making the matter even more difficult for the waste collectors that remain.
Thus
, I suggest you relocate some workers back to our neighbourhood and upgrade the garbage trucks to support a heavier load of trash. Feel free to contact me anytime using my phone number. I wait for your reply. Best regards, John.
