Rishton: Waste service enforcement notices

During the last few weeks the Waste Services enforcement team have been monitoring the Stourton/Livesey/Lord/Clifton Street area of Rishton.

Recently this has become a problem area in that many residents have been presenting large amounts of side waste, flytipping bulky items, leaving their refuse bins out for long periods, stealing other residents bins and also putting their extra waste in someone else’s bin.

Cllr Paul Cox, Cabinet member for Waste Services, said, "On Monday 19th August, the enforcement team carried out a side waste inspection and was quite alarmed to see the scale of the problem, in fact they have subsequently issued 9 Section 46 notices on the back of this. They will continue to monitor the situation and hopefully help in advising people into both bringing their bin back in after collection and retain ownership by numbering their own bin."
