Neighbourhood Management

We want to ensure that the neighbourhood is attractive, well-maintained and a safe place to live. In order to make this happen we have to effectively manage the environment around our properties and any common areas.

Estate management incorporates many different services, some of which are not provided by us but by external agencies, such as Glasgow City Council.

We aim to work in partnership to ensure the area you live in is of a high standard, however it is important that you report any issues you see to the correct agency directly, and take responsibility for the part you play in keeping the area clean and tidy.

What is Glasgow City Council responsible for?

The council tax that you pay is used to provide you with many council services. These are not provided by Rosehill therefore if you have issues relating to them you should report them to Glasgow City Council (GCC) directly. Glasgow City Council are responsible for the following:

De-littering - De-littering of the roads and pavements in your local area.They will also deal with any incidents of fly-tipping.
Bin Collection - Bins are collected on different days depending on what area you live in GCC also deals with replacement bins and issues with collection.
Bulk uplift - removal of large waste items
Roads and pavements - Potholes on roads or uneven pavements.
Street lighting - Faulty street lighting or if lighting is inadequate in your area.
Graffiti & dog fouling - If you want to report any dog fouling or graffiti related issues you should call the Environmental Task Force.
