Huncoat: Independent Councillor works with Labour to improve the area

Cllr Dave Parkins has received complaints from residents on Sutton Crescent in Huncoat regarding dog fouling. LCC has been clearing drains in the area and the excess runoff has sluiced into a nearby stream. This has unfortunately shown that people are putting bagged up dog waste into the storm drains and this is clogging up the sewerage system.

Independent Cllr Parkins said, "I was successful in getting an extra ten dog bins from the Labour group at HBC in Huncoat and people are still inconsiderate enough to dump their dog waste elsewhere. We are spending thousands on Spout House Woodland and this is how the minority abuse our public land. The dog warden has been informed and I will be asking for extra patrols to monitor this situation."
