Enforcement
Aims and principles
We aim to safeguard and improve the health, safety and environment of our community by delivering a wide range of enforcement services in a fair and consistent way.
Fixed Penalty Notices
We investigate instances of environmental crime in public places across the district.
Dog fouling
We ask you to help in keeping our streets and spaces clean by ensuring you clean up after your dog. Many sites have bins provided especially for this purpose.
Fly-posting
Fly-posting is the unauthorised placing of advertising - usually posters or stickers. It is illegal and spoils both public and private property and it can be very costly to remove.
Planning enforcement
Our planning enforcement officers will investigate any alleged breaches of planning control
