Flyposting in Rochdale (PDF, 3 pages)

(118k)


Rochadale's approach to fly posting includes sending out letter's to deter people.

Tara Dumas, the Clean and Green Co-ordinator, is the officer involved and before she sends a letter she has an informal chat with the perpetrator and lets them know a warning letter is on the way and explains in more detail the reasons for their zero tolerance approach. That way, they understand they are not being singled out.

To date a lot of the fly posting has disappeared and not come back.
