**The issue** Residents/Cllrs have raised issues of dangerous pavements (especially in Autumn and Winter) due to leaves (often from council trees).  \ Pavements are not always in good condition either - potential trip hazards.\ At this stage this is general with no specific locations mentioned. **Status and progress** Ward Cllrs remain aware of this issue and will report problems themselves when spotted.\|\ Residents are reminded that they can report issues direct to Street Cleaning team at NELC - see link below - and are encouraged to do so. [Interesting recent article from NELC about street cleaning](https://www.nelincs.gov.uk/deep-clean-project-making-north-east-lincolnshire-streets-better-for-everyone/). **Barriers and obstacles** Not every leaf or crack can be resolved instantly. So residents are encouraged to keep reporting. **Next steps** Forum will continue to explain to residents how to report issues and will keep discussions going at meetings. **Further Information** Reporting issues: \ [https://my.nelincs.gov.uk/s/flow/Littering_street_and_beach_cleaning](https://my.nelincs.gov.uk/s/flow/Littering_street_and_beach_cleaning) Potholes in pavements or roads can be reported here:\ [https://my.nelincs.gov.uk/s/flow/Roads_footpaths_and_cycleways](https://my.nelincs.gov.uk/s/flow/Roads_footpaths_and_cycleways) [https://www.nelincs.gov.uk/keeping-our-area-clean-and-safe/](https://www.nelincs.gov.uk/keeping-our-area-clean-and-safe/)
