LIKE most ratepayers I welcome the news (Star, April 5) that there are plans to improve the areas around College Street and St Helens Central station.


To show that these are not just ploys by a council looking for re-election why not make a firm declaration of the very early removal of eyesores which are real blots on the landscape.


One is the tax offices on College Street which is deteriorating at an accelerating rate.
