Poo ban extended in Burnley as town continues fight against anti-social behaviour
A ban on begging, urinating or defecating in public, and the misuse of bicycles and skateboards is set to be extended later this month.
It allows the council and police to use powers to stamp out anti-social behaviour including begging, unsolicited charity collection, youths hanging around after 11pm and people urinating or defecating in the street. The new order, if approved, would give extra powers to tackle the consumption of alcohol on the street and the misuse of other intoxicating substances, as well as excessive noise from the use of outside amplifiers in the town centre.
The order is part of measures to make the area safer and more attractive for visitors and shoppers. Cllr Shah Hussain, Burnley Council’s community and environmental services boss, said: “We are working hard to make Burnley town centre a welcoming place where people want to visit and where they feel safe.
