A man from Walsall has been given a fine from Stafford Magistrates Court after enforcement officers witnessed him dropping a cigarette end in a local car park.

In June 2017 George Coldicott was witnessed dropping a cigarette end in a local car park.  Mr Coldicott was issued with a £75 fixed penalty notice, which he accepted, to avoid court proceedings.  However, 6 weeks later he was witnessed discarding another cigarette end in a local takeaway car park.

Cannock Chase Council has successfully prosecuted a local man after building waste was dumped on land off the A5 in Cannock, costing the Rugeley man over £700 in fines.

In November 2016 building waste was dumped overnight on land off the A5 in Bridgtown, Cannock.  Documentation was found in the waste, which linked it to a property in Stafford.

Following investigations officers found that Mr Smith had advertised his waste disposal services on Facebook and that he had been paid to remove the waste and dispose of it correctly.

The community allotments and building at the former Cannock Stadium Site are now complete, as part of the £1.3m redevelopment project.

The allotments consist of 14 large plots, with some that can be split and some raised beds and disabled planters.  The allotment building has access to electricity and water and is heated so could be used as a community room or classroom in the future.
