Letters to the Editor: Clean up your trash!
January 18, 2005
Dear Sir,
First, let me say a big thank you to Agatha Lambert of Laffan Street in Hamilton, for helping to keep a part of Bermuda clean for the past 20 years. She deserves all the gifts she received from CableVision and a big thank you to CableVision and its employees.
Now the hard part. A while back, CableVision was working in Somerset area and they left trash (wire, cut-off cable, pieces of plastic ties, etc.) all along the road side and under the poles they worked on. I collected a big bag full of this trash and gave it to the KBB boss who was supposed to have notified CableVision not to have littered anymore. Well,just before Christmas CableVision workers were back in Somerset putting up new cables. They have again left trash (off cuts of cable, old cable, bits of wire cut plastic ties, etc.) on the roadside and in the bushes, hoping, I guess, that the bushes will eventually cover the trash.
CableVision, do the right thing and come up to Somerset and clean up your trash and while you're at it, take the ugly disconnected cables you have left on the poles off. It would also be nice if you and the telephone company would take your cables off the old cut-off poles and put them on the new poles that are along side. Belco could then remove these ugly old poles. I suggest before another award is given by the "Going Forward' Committee, CableVision clean up its own trash first.
