Subject to one or two minor exceptions and fly-tipping isn't one of them.

]]> Comment on Bogus charity clothes bank removed by Alan Stanton http://www.stonecothillnews.co.uk/2008/03/16/43/#comment-32 Alan Stanton Sat, 31 May 2008 04:11:29 +0000 http://stonecothill.wordpress.com/?p=45#comment-32 It's interesting that Sutton successfully used Planning Enforcement to get this removed. As a local councillor (in Haringey) I'm not against anyone running a responsible recycling business. But I do object to the exploitation of people's charitable impulses. Thanks for posting this and spreading the word. It’s interesting that Sutton successfully used Planning Enforcement to get this removed.
