Penny wise - pound foolish?
We are having trouble with fly-tipping in front of the Hounslow Furniture Project and the next door electricity sub station. As I go past there almost daily I do report it, but it is getting more frequent. Last week it was an old sofa, yesterday I reported a mattress, a bundle of wood and a builder's bag full of garden waste stuff. This morning this junk had been joined by another two mattresses and two bed bases! I have suggested that perhaps the council should put a Domehawk camera on the nearby lamp standard to monitor this area to see if the offenders can be caught and even, maybe prosecuted. I would think that this option, and I understand the council have mobile CCTV cameras, would be a damned sight cheaper than constantly sending a vehicle to pick up this rubbish. Anyone want to bet on the likelihood of this happening?
