Strong Dog Fouling Enforcement Coming
The Council will be adopting new dog fouling powers that will increase the maximum penalty for failing to remove dog faeces deposited on the highway to £1000 on conviction. The Council will be targeting its enforcement operations at known hotspots in the vicinity of Primary schools.
New signage and publicity in the local newspapers will advertise this new power in the next couple of months. Leaflets will also be handed out to dog walkers and local residents in the vicinity of targeted enforcement areas. The Council will be offering those actually caught in the act of failing to remove faeces the opportunity of paying a fixed penalty notice of £80. If the notice is not paid, legal proceedings will be issued. Such operations will be dependent on Council resources and the level of Police support that can be made available.

Hawk in Moormead Park Threatens Small Birds
“I thought local ‘bird loving’ residents may be interested to hear that a large hawk has been seen at the top of Sidney Road and also on Moormead Park.
I have spoken to a few residents that have thought squirrels may be to blame for the recent significant reduction of small birds in the area, and this bird of prey may be the cause.
If the hawk decides to nest in the area, it could decimate the local bird community; especially, as it is large enough to take a cat or very small dog. I personally saw it catch a black song bird and its mate in one claw, but was unsuccesful in getting the bird to drop its prey. The bird stands approximately two feet high, and has a wingspan of over three feet.
The sighting has been reported to both the RSPCA and the local council.”
from Jonathan Blair, local resident
