  9. National publicity -Flytipping prosection. Wrexham Continues to Clamp Down on Environmental Crime Wrexham Council's high tech war on fly tipping has paid off with a successful prosecution following a surveillance operation using mini CCTV cameras at a known dumping hotspot. Stuart Graham Norgrove of Cefn Mawr (25), pleaded guilty at Wrexham magistrates recently and the judge handed him a £500 fine with £80 costs. Officers traced Mr Norgrove when his vehicle registration was checked using the Authority’s links to the Driver and Vehicle Licensing Authority (DVLA). 1 Successful F/T prosecution taken through court & 1 Littering 3 prosecutions pending

  11. Awareness – Dog Chipping • Neutering - last year we had 120 neutered, this year we have over 220 booked in with local vets and Acorn are handling out vouchers for re-homed dogs • Partnership working with: • Dogs Trust • RSPCS • Kennels • Vets • Since January over 160 have been micro-chipped

  13. Budget Pressures 2008/9 • 5 Environmental Enforcement Officer posts are temporary posts. Funded through community safety budget which ends March 2008 • Service Pressure of £130,000

  14. Income from fines • Estimated Income from fines £22,000 based on current receipts • The Service has for the last 3 years accounted for £10,000 of this income as part of its annual budget • Income from pest control significantly down this year due to seasonal variation and fewer complaints re: wasps/ants

  15. Streetscene Enforcement • The value of the teams work has been demonstrated over the last 12 months. It will not be possible to achieve street scene enforcement targets next year without these officers • Significant increase in targets from 350 FPN - team to achieve 600 FPN this year • Increase in prosecutions including for non payment • Highly skilled officers with considerable experience. It would take at least 18 months to train new staff to this level
