+ <dt>What is this site?</dt>
+ <dd>FixMyStreet Bucks is a site to allow people to make reports to
+ Buckinghamshire County Council, and view, or discuss local issues they’ve
+ found, by simply locating them on a map.</dd>
+
+ <dt>How do I get in touch with FixMyStreet?</dt>
+ <dd>Here’s our <a href="/contact">contact page</a>.</dd>
+
+ <dt>What sort of problems should I report with FixMyStreet?</dt>
+ <dd>FixMyStreet Bucks is primarily for reporting things which are
+ <strong>broken or damaged or dumped, and need fixing, or clearing</strong>, such as:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Flodding
+ <li>Grit bins
+ <li>Rubbish or flytipping
+ <li>Potholes
+ <li>Street signs and traffic lights
+ <li>Unlit lampposts
+ </ul>
+ We may send some reports to the relevant District Council especially for:
+ <ul>
+ <li>Abandoned vehicles
+ <li>Flytipping or litter
+ <li>Streetcleaning, such as broken glass in a cycle lane
+ </ul>
+ </dd>
+
+ <dt>What isn’t FixMyStreet for?</dt>
+ <dd>FixMyStreet is not a way of getting in touch with Buckinghamshire
+ County Council for all issues – please use this site only for problems
+ such as the above. We often route problem reports to the Parish and District
+ council, so using this site for other matters may result in a delay in
+ your report getting to the right department.
+ <p><strong>You will need to contact the relevant authority directly for problems such as</strong>:
+
+ <ul><li>Anti-social behaviour
+ <li>Any urgent or emergency problems
+ <li>Noise pollution or barking dogs
+ <li>Fires and smoke/smell pollution
+ <li>Missing wheelie bins or recycling boxes or missed rubbish collections
+ <li>Complaining about your neighbours
+ <li>Joy riding, drug taking, animal cruelty, or other criminal activity should be reported to the Police Service.
+ </ul>
+ <p>Complaints about Buckinghamshire County Council can be sent <a href="https://www.buckscc.gov.uk/services/contact-and-complaints/compliments-complaints-and-suggestions/">via this form</a>.
+ </dd>
+
+ <dt>How do I use the site?</dt>
+ <dd>After entering a location, you are presented with a map of that area.
+ You can view problems already reported in that area, or report ones of your
+ own by clicking on the map at the location of the problem.</dd>
+
+ <dt>How are the problems solved?</dt>
+ <dd>They are reported to us at Buckinghamshire County Council who will
+ resolve the problem the way we normally would.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Is it free?</dt>
+ <dd>The site is free to use, yes.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Can I use FixMyStreet on my mobile?</dt>

+ <dt>Do you remove silly or illegal content?</dt>
+ <dd>FixMyStreet Bucks is not responsible for the content and
+ accuracy of material submitted by its users. We reserve the right to
+ edit or remove any problems or updates which we consider to be
+ inappropriate upon being informed by a user of the site.</dd>
+
+ <dt>Why can’t I zoom out more on the reporting map?</dt>
+ <dd>We want to keep FixMyStreet Bucks locally focused, so restrict
+ the ability to move radically between areas. The map on Your Reports will
+ let you see all the reports you’ve made, wherever they are.</dd>
