Irresponsible dog owners are repeatedly allowing their pets to foul a recently created path and green area next to a school.
A new car park has been created near Wickes, off Burton Road, which is used by parents and carers taking children to and from Burton Road Primary.
But local councillor Margaret Sheard is angry because she says some dog owners seem to believe the new space is a pooch loo.
She says that is potentially putting children's health at risk.
Coun Sheard is angry because within the car park there is a specific doggie bin and an ordinary waste bin and signs along the path warning dog owners not to allow their pets to foul the path or the green space.
"How many times and in how many ways do we have to try to get the message across that if someone's dog makes a mess they should pick it up," she said.
But despite the bins and the warning signs Coun Sheard says on an almost daily basis, as soon as one pile of doggie dirt has been picked up by angry car park users, another one reappears.
"There are some people who park there and then walk their dogs in the opposite direction away from the school," she said.
"However obviously there are some people who do not simply wallk through here with their dogs but who regard this is somewhere they can bring their dogs to and walk away from the mess they have created.
"It's not good enough, it is potentialy dangerous and we will be doing everything we can to find who is responsible."
