Doggone ...

Dogs should be banned from the town centre. Every day there are fresh droppings on the footpath. These are always trodden on and spread along the footpath. This is filthy and unhygienic.

There should be a No Dogs signs put up, and a $50 fine imposed on those ignoring them. A $100 fine should be imposed on those whose dogs foul on the footpath.

At least $20 of these fines should go to people supplying video evidence to the council.

As it is the footpaths through the main town centre need a good cleaning.
