The cuts may include some or all of the following:
- No longer employing people with any horticultural knowledge to look after flowerbeds, trees, shrubs and parkland.
- Removing instead of repairing or replacing broken play equipment.
- Removing instead of repairing or replacing broken fencing, seating, signage, and other street furniture.
- Picking up litter in parks no more than once per week.
- Fewer staff based at specific parks (this will almost certainly impact Marple Memorial Park's staffing).
- Removing support to Friends of Park Groups, leaving them to try and get on with a bigger work load on their own.
- A cessation or reduction in the frequency of hedge trimming, cutting grass, removing graffiti, pruning, weeding and maintenance of parks.
