Dog Fouling
ONCE AGAIN THIS IS BECOMING A PROBLEM IN THE PARISH - It is an offence to allow a dog, which you are responsible for, to foul and not clear it up immediately when in a public place. There are a number of dog hygiene bins situated around the parish for dog walkers to use.
Allowing dogs to foul and not clean up after them is illegal as well as being anti-social. Offenders can expect a fixed penalty notice of £75 or prosecution in some cases.
If you want to report a problem with dog mess or to report dog fouling, please call or email Central Beds Council Customer Services on - Tel: 0300 300 8302 or Email: [email protected]
Next Council Meeting
