Re: Questions for Lee Haworth - Environmental Heal
Two hours after the binmen came and moved rubbish from several back alleys in Springhill, this was left at the bottom end of Exchange St!!!
I just can't believe some people!
Does this man think the council are running a personal service?

Re: Questions for Lee Haworth - Environmental Heal
11th August, big, noisy fireworks going off already! > 
Dogs barking at them.
I thought the government was supposed to be banning these things?
Any information about where the council stands on this issue Lee?

Just seen a council van outside the offending property. hadn't realised the council had put the original mess back in his yard - nice one!
He is now in the process of moving the second lot back into his yard! He's not a happy bunny, can hear him complaining about the council making life difficult for him!
Ah what a shame!! Thanks Lee!
By the way was the big guy taking photos at the weekend anything to do with you!

Re: Questions for Lee Haworth - Environmental Heal
What is the council's policy on dogs being left out in the yard all day? Apart from what I think is a cruelty aspect, they have been causing great annoyance with their constant barking around here.

Re: Questions for Lee Haworth - Environmental Heal
I have been off for a few days. I will look into this but our records show that there has been no complaints received about this matter and we don't even know the address. In order for us to respond we need details.
I assume it was a colleague from Cleansing in the Council van at weekend.
Regarding dogs in yards: The Council has no policy on this matter, however we can investigate specific complaints of noise nuisance. These can only be responded to if the complainant fills out a monitoring sheet which they can get from Environmental Services at Cannon St. All cruelty complaints should be directed to the RSPCA as the Council has no powers over dog control on private property.
Please also note that more officers from the Council are now being authorised to issue Fixed Penalty Notices to residents leaving bags out and also to take action against people not using their new bins. Please be patient though, this takes time but we are serious about the problems. (see Saturday 9th Aug Lans Eve. Telegraph article on fines) and keep your eye on the local press for up and coming Court appearances for some Accrington residents who are being prosecuted for leaving bags out.
Finally, I am only monitoring this site as and when I get chance, in order that I can help in any way. Complaints regarding refuse, bins, fly tipping etc. should be reported to the Helpline on 399988 or by email to env.health@hyndburnbc.gov.uk
Thanks
Lee Haworth - please note correct spelling! in case anyone wants to email me.

Re: Questions for Lee Haworth - Environmental Heal
Lee, I have emailed picture links to you on each of these litter incidents and even given the address of the offender! Also one about a dumped freezer in the "Crazy" thread was emailed to you
