Green Party Councillor Cadogan Enright has condemned the tiny minority of dog owners in Killyleagh who allow their dogs to, on a daily basis, foul neighbours and residents gardens at Well Lane and Church Lane.
Local Resident Myrtle Mann said, “A small number of local dog owners allow their animals to foul our green spaces at the same time everyday, you can set your watch by them, 9am and 10.30am every day.”
Myrtles husband, community activist Mike Mann said, “there are also two cars which park at the end of the lane, let their dogs out to foul and then drive off.”
Green Party Councillor Cadogan Enright said, “local residents keep these cottages beautifully in order. It is a shame that some people bring their dogs here, often daily, and disrespect the efforts of the local community to keep green spaces clean. I have formally requested the dog wardens to keep a special eye on this area and to make prosecutions when culprits are caught.”
DOWN Green Party Cllr Cadogan Enright has expressed his grave concern that a development in an area that has five degrees of environmental protection designations has been given approval by the Planning Service. He pointed out that a perfectly acceptable site existed in the Delamont farm complex only a few hundred meters away from the Wildlife reserve being sought by the Developers. He questioned the motives of the developers in rejecting a site where good services already exit..
