Angry Scots residents in playpark poo war hit out after council refuse dog ban proposals
Frustrated Ayrshire residents have been told that dogs cannot be banned from a kids swing park they say is covered in dog muck which threatens their children's health.
But they were told that changes to the law now prevented them from introducing such bans. Instead, they could only put up 'no dog fouling' signs asking owners to control their pets and clear up after them. "It is covered in dog muck and what I am looking for is a notice to put up on the gate saying 'no dogs allowed'. Mr Curdie was told that the council was not allowed to ban dogs from parks .
The group also said that the existing signage warning about dog fouling didn't work and that dog owners were inclined not to pick up after their dog when it is dark. "Fences are no longer erected around play areas, dog grids are being removed, some having sections of fencing removed, with some sections left for safety, i.e. where a child might run onto a road or into water, for example."
