FPNs issued to fly-tippers and litter louts
A NUMBER of Fixed Penalty Notices have been handed out across Carmarthenshire for littering, dog fouling and people using an unlicensed carrier to remove their waste.
A FPN has been issued to a Llanelli resident who dumped a sofa in Clos Sant Paul in Tyisha. The offence took place in November and was captured on CCTV.
Cllr Philip Hughes, Carmarthenshire Council’s Cabinet Member for Public Protection, said: “The illegal dumping of any waste ruins our county’s landscape and I am pleased that thanks to the hard work of council officers we were able to identify the persons responsible. I hope that this serves as a reminder that we will not tolerate fly-tipping of any kind in Carmarthenshire.”
Fly-tipping can be reported on the Council website, www. carmarthenshire.gov.wales
