Cllr. Mark Cherry visited the site of the fly-tipping in Harlech Close yesterday (February 19) after residents of the street informed him of excessive fly-tipping waste that had been left outside an empty property.
Residents said the pile of rubbish, which includes a large number of dumped tyres, is a fire hazard and could put them and the neighbours of the empty house at serious risk if not removed.
