This Website
This website is not council run. Neither is it affiliated with any political party.
This website is run for St Peters by St Peters Neighbourhood Management Board comprised of residents and people from other agencies who have a stake in St Peters.
This website will simply "tell it like it is" and reflect the community it represents. If you don't like what the website is showing you then the chances are neither do we but presenting rosy pictures of this community is a policy that has never served this community well in the past. Sweeping issues under the carpet and hoping to get through your working day as a service provider here in st peters simply will no longer work because while you are doing that, this website is presenting the stark reality.
It is felt that all too often Leicester City Council in its publications, journals and reports present a picture somewhat rosier than prevailing reality.
Where we find positive things to say about St Peters we will say it. Likewise where we consistently find rubbish, grime and disrepair it will be put on display for the whole world to see.
The days in which local authorities can present rosy pictures or carefully planned and routed tours to government ministers safe in the knowledge that the rubbish and grime typical of social housing stays concealed are long gone.
No longer can sub standards in social housing be delivered with impunity... safe in the knowledge that neighbourhood management misdeeds will not become known as we intend to compare our neighbourhood with the very best privately owned property and infrastructure management has to offer. We intend to set up a series of comparison websites with prominent and high profile residential developments. Our first are likely to be a comparison site with the Zenith Building here in Leicester (due autumn 2007) and the London Bridge tower in London (due 2011).
If the content of this website makes for uncomfortable viewing then support us to make St Peters a better place to live.
The negative aspects of St Peters reported in this website are things we would prefer not to broadcast in this way to the world. But that policy has never served St Peters well in the past.
It is hoped that this website will concentrate minds within city council and provide a reminder of an existence of life beyond the ring road and city centre with its multi billion pound regeneration schemes.

Either deter or provide more wardens
If you are not going to deter those who drop litter then you must put in the staff and man hours to clear it all up.
The 2 wardens we have here in St Peters to clear the litter within the neighbourhood is not enough as can be seen from the photo's of litter on the left.
However 2 wardens would be enough if people used bins.
These bins are not in place right now. Our estimate is for 50 bins and you supplied us with only a further 6 litter bins.
Neither do you have a policy or strategy to deter people from dropping it.
However we do have a policy and strategy. If people are seen dropping litter by us... quite simply we will film them and put them on the internet to be identified and dealt with.
Do that enough and we believe people the word will go round and people will think twice about littering.
Leicester Parking Information
With parking such a big issue in this neighbourhood a highlighting of the highway code will certainly save many people here money on penalty charges
