'NAME and shame' boards and CCTV cameras are being planned for Barnsley's fly-tipping hot spots in an effort to curb a dumping epidemic in the borough.
It is hoped the new high profile measures will act as a deterrent and put people off blighting the town with their unwanted rubbish.
The Chronicle reported how in March there was an average of almost 13 incidents reported every day, with the 399 requests for cleanup work smashing the previous record of 290 recorded in July last year.
** The full story is in the Barnsley Chronicle newspaper, dated July 3. **
We have been at the heart of our community, every week, since 1858. The town and its people have changed dramatically since then but the Chronicle has been a constant.
It’s our belief that news should be available to everyone regardless of their circumstance. But we need a little helping hand to do so.
Production Editor, Ashley Ball, said: "In an ever changing media world, it’s important that news is reported correctly and without any hidden agenda.
Your support allows us to keep holding decision-makers to account and report on everything that happens in the town, good or bad, fairly."
