CCPF Closed
Parish Council Statement
DOG ATTACK IN THE CHARLES COWPER FIELD-UPPER BODDINGTON.
On Saturday 14th March, a family using the CCPF was subjected to an attack by 2 dogs who were loose in the field despite the notice banning dogs.
One of the children was knocked to the ground and while, fortunately, not suffering serious harm, was left extremely traumatised and with cuts and bruises.
The Parish Council put up the NO DOGS ALLOWED notice expressly to exclude dogs from this play area to protect users from this type of abuse and to prevent fouling.
The Parish Council wishes to remind parishioners that NO DOGS ARE ALLOWED on the CCPF (service dogs excepted) and that dogs on the Jubilee field MUST BE ON A LEAD.
Any parishioner seeing either of these two regulations being flaunted has the right to ask the perpetrator to abide by the rules or, if they do not wish to confront the individual(s), to make a note of any details that should be passed on to a Parish Councillor so that further action can be taken. As there is CCTV at the VH/CCPF the Parish Council will endeavour to identify abusers.
Anti-Social Behaviour
It is with great regret that the Parish Council has to report further incidents of the anti-social behaviour previously reported.
This involves dog waste bags being thrown over the hedge into the garden of 21 London End. THIS BEHAVIOUR IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE and the Parish Council will now take strident steps to identify the perpetrators and involve the police.
The Council asks anyone with information that might be helpful in identifying these antisocial individuals to come forward and report this to a Parish Councillor. This could be done in strict confidence. In addition to this, dog waste bags have been left on the seat of a bench and there is evidence that dog waste is not being picked up. This coupled with the flagrant disregard of the DOGS TO BE KEPT ON A LEAD rule means that the Parish Council has no option but to consider ways to restrict the use of the JF by dog owners. Yet again, it is the minority that will be spoiling the use of a facility by the majority.
