The Law on Clearing Snow From Public Places

*********

Bulk Oil Buying Scheme

Community Lincs has launched a new way for you to buy your oil!
Our Bulk Oil Buying Scheme launches today with the aim of maximising the joint buying power of communities to enable them to make significant savings when buying their domestic heating oil.

The scheme is open to individuals, community buildings and businesses that use oil to heat their homes and premises for a small annual membership fee. All they have to do is pay a small annual membership fee of £20 for individual households to £100 for a business and they will then be able to place as many orders as they want for a whole year.

Your community may already have a successful local scheme and if so that’s great. Our aim is not to take it over but they are welcome to join if they wish and they will benefit by saving their time.

We would also like to ask for your help in publicising the scheme and in particular with recruiting a local volunteer co-ordinator for your parish, who will receive their membership of the scheme for free.

If you are on mains gas then you may find this is not relevant to you, but if you know someone who might find it of interest then please pass the information on to them.


To get more information about how the scheme works, for details of how to become a co-ordinator and how to join the scheme please visit the Community Lincs website at www.communitylincs.com or alternatively give us a call on 01529 301980 or email us at bulkoil@communitylincs.com

Dog Fouling

Numerous complaints have been received regarding the small minority of dog owners who do not clean up after their dog has fouled whilst walking.
Dog owners have a responsibility in law to clean up after their dog has fouled.
The Parish Council together with SKDC will enforce the law if necessary.
The Message is simple CLEAN IT UP OR FACE PROSECUTION
Scoop it up bag it take it home and put it in the refuse bag for the dustcart or place it after you have bagged it in an SKDC litter bin
* One Dog Owner in the Village has already been issued with a fixed penalty notice
