The new power to fine for dropping litter will probably not be implemented in Hyndburn, because the Tories, in their infinite wisdom decided to dispense with the Community Wardens. The wardens did have the power to fine people on the spot for dropping litter, dog fouling etc. the council were fully aware when the first Community Wardens were employed that from April 2006 they would have to fund them out of Council Revenue, the initial start up grant was only until March 2006.
If you vote Labour in the Elections on May 4th, and they become the controlling group on Hyndburn Council, they will employ 24 wardens , so that each ward will have the benefit of them.
