The Cost of Fly Tipping

A lorry load of household building waste was dumped on North Downs Way above Wouldham, spoiling one of the most beautiful walks in the county.
A local Conservative Councillor reported this to T&MBC on Sunday last week.

Now the good news:
This is the same site on Tuesday morning!
Thank you to the T&MBC Officers and Contractors who sorted the mess out. Hopefully the healing hand of nature will complete the job and the North Downs Way will look stunning again before too long.

What it cost us:
This clean-up operation cost local Council Tax payers about £200. Each year, in T&MBC area, about £50,000 is spent to clear up fly-tipping and dumped rubbish - money that could be used to reduce Council Tax or provide additional services and facilities.
