Dumping Rubbish On Roads
The Waimairi County Council’s finance committee was criticised by Cr. J. I. Colligan for ! accepting a cheque for £3 3s, and deciding to take no further ! action against a woman who ad- • mitted dumping rubbish in Wairakei road, and had since cleared ; it up. apologising for the incon- • venience. Noting that one prosecution had already been successful. Cr. Colligan asked whether the woman J would have been prosecuted • i had she not sent the cheque. I The publicity arising from Court I prosecutions was the greatest , t deterrent to the dumping of i j rubbish, he said. i! The council’s solicitors advised ; that three other cases which were /referred to them for comment Jwould not succeed, or would be inadvisable to proceed with, for , j various reasons. The council resolved to continue . its policy of treating each case on (its merits.
