Hi Deano The cast iron channel opposite your residence was stolen sometime late last week . The channel was already missing on Sunday I reckon and definitely by Tuesday already, David also noted it to me yesterday but I did not get around yet to have placed it on to the news site. Hence the reason to get our camera surveillance system up and working along Lytton Street sections to start off with, and to expand the initiative as respective street projects in Observatory. Regards James
