Footpaths and Dog Poo
In response to public concern, the Cleaner and Greener department of the City Council have launched PooWatch to raise awareness of this problem. Go to
poowatch.co.uk to see what is happening in our membership area. Please encourage dog owners to use the two new bins installed at the entrance to Britannia Square from The Tything and at the west end of Albany Terrace. There is now a dog bag dispenser on the south side of Britannia Square and a further bin at the junction of Stephenson Road and the Moors.
The Civil Enforcement Officers patrol our streets on a regular basis and will prosecute owners who fail to clean up after their dogs where there is sufficient evidence to do so. If you have information or wish to discuss the matter call Alison Fitzgerald, Senior Civil Enforcement Officer, on 01905 722233.

A Guide to Painting Stucco Rendered Façades in the Britannia Square Conservation Area
At the Residents' Association AGM in November 2019, there were a
number of questions from the floor with regard to the choice of house
paint colours in the area. Whilst the committee was able to cite the
current guidance (for 'stone-coloured' paint), there were requests for
more information, and some form of guide for reference. With this in
mind, the committee developed a set of recommendations. These were developed over six months or so, drawing on the expertise and
knowledge of committee members, with input from former Conservation
Officer, Will Scott. They can be found
here.
