DEAR drunks - if you're going to go on a night out, please don't vomit, break a window or use the area near a business's front entrance for a "number two".

This would be the request from an Ocean Street business owner who has had to face the unpleasant task of cleaning up after busy nights of partying.

The owner, who asked to remain anonymous, is thankful Ocean Street has become such a popular precinct.

YOUR LETTERS: OCEAN STREET GOOD BEHAVIOUR A FARCE

But he wished someone would take charge of the clean-up in the morning or ensure the drunks get out of the area before they made a mess.

"It is work we shouldn't have to do," he said.

Top Spot Motel's Lauris Bryant's has called for more control in the surrounding area.

"The rubbish, vomit and excrement needs to be seen to be believed," she said.

Piano and Sol Bar owner, Dimitris (Dimi) Limnatitis, agreed Ocean Street was lacking in government services.

"We don't get any clean up done from them and we maintain our driveways and footpaths," he said.

"We also don't have a taxi marshal to help people get into a taxi safe instead of getting annoyed outside for 45 minutes."

Mr Limnatitis said the scale of the problem was very small.

"We have 4000 to 5000 people here on a night, as far as precincts go, this is one of the safest, not just on the Coast but in Queensland.

Lack of bins and public toilets didn't help.

"We can have cigarette butts everywhere, but we don't have designated smoking areas and bins," Mr Limnatitis said.

"You will find people urinating in public areas, but we don't have toilets anywhere near the area after venues close.

"The police are doing an amazing job, but the need is from a council point of view."

Reader poll Do you believe Ocean Street needs more facilities and services to curb bad behaviour? This poll ended on 31 August 2015.

He said five years ago the council wasn't receiving a cent from Ocean Street, "now there is all the outdoor dining taxes and fees".

"Where does the money go? Not into Ocean Street.

"We need more CCTV and more lighting. You can't just blame it on the drunken people.

"The majority out in the street are those not allowed in venues because they have been drinking at home or are on drugs."

A council spokesman said a waste collection contractor serviced public place waste bins each day, seven days per week.

"As well as emptying bins, the contractor cleans up spilt litter within a three-metre radius of the bin."

The council's parks and gardens operations cleaned up the litter and debris on footpaths, but not all work happened on weekends.

"Council cleaners attend to the precinct on Saturday morning and Sunday mornings, while street sweeping takes place on Monday and Friday," he said.
