Identity of "serial dumper" being sought by Tullamore Tidy Towns

Tullamore Tidy Towns Association has put out a call to the public for help in identifying what they have described as "a serial dumper" who has been consistently dumping their rubbish in the Bury Quay/Tullamore Harbour area of the town.

In a post on their Facebook page, the group said "this is a repeat offender deliberately spreading their household bin bags over the bridge" and they issued a public appeal for anyone with information about the offender to please supply it to the litter warden at the Tullamore Municipal District office - tullamoremd@offalycoco.ie

Tullamore Tidy Towns has also issued a warning that "from here onwards" it is their intention to "name and shame repeat offenders" with photos and videos on their Facebook page.

"This includes serial rubbish bag dumpers, along with people who are stuffing their household rubbish in the town centre bins." They have also signalled their intention of implementing "a major drive" on dog fouling around town and walkways with offenders being highlighted.
