Noticeboard
You will be aware that a new Waste & Recycling Contract will start on 24th March 2024. Three of our Dog Waste Bins, purchased by the Parish Council, have been removed by Ashford Borough Council as they will no longer empty these. They have not been replaced where there is a normal Litter Bin nearby as dog waste can be put in any bin including your own wheelie bin at home and this they ask you to do. Where there isn't a Litter Bin nearby they will replace the Dog Waste Bin with a new Litter Bin. As you probably also know Wittersham is part of the Wittersham Cluster Caretaker Scheme (this includes Stone-cum-Ebony, Kenardington & Warehorne) and has a contract with the Borough Council to empty all Dog Waste & Litter Bins on a weekly basis and has done so since 2012. Therefore the Parish Council will be purchasing two new Dog Waste Bins to replace the two removed from The Street, especially as the Borough Council will not be replacing the one near the Church as there isn't room for a normal Litter Bin.
