DOG WASTE BINS AT SOUTH HORRINGTON & GLENCOT ROAD The Committee felt that education was the best approach and that requests for dog bins will increase. It is not practical to support every request and it avoids dog- walkers taking responsibility. It was suggested that, in South Horrington, the caretaker could add signage to urge residents to dispose of waste properly, the Development agents, Firstport, could be asked and that the landowner could be contacted to add signage at the Cricket Club.

  • Annual Review 2011-12 Chairman’S Foreword
    Mendip Hills AONB Unit Mendip Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty Annual Review 2011-12 Chairman’s Foreword Welcome to the Annual Review 2011-12 in which we highlight the work undertaken and key achievements of the AONB Unit and its Partnership activity. The AONB Partnership has demonstrated that despite local authority funding cuts and diffi culties to sign up to long term funding agreements all the local authority partners have been able to commit suffi cient resources to enable the Partnerships staff team to deliver a wide range of functions and projects locally and to be an effective member of the National Association of AONBs. Richard Benyon MP, Parliamentary Under-Secretary of State for Natural Environment and Fisheries has recognised the fundamental role of AONB Partnerships in meeting environmental objectives and delivering Big Society.
