Lets Recap!
Its over three months since RAOP started acting on this issue. Many of you have spoken, left comments (and stolen signs), but the West Tamar Council who budgeted $120k for the ?9th conseq. year for a Deviot toilet, still have no plans. A conversation with a usually reliable counsellor-back in August, revealed it was currently 'out to tender' - well I am licenced to say- That was crap! That was merely to calm us down.
Now we need to ask, what else does the WTC use our allocated money for each year?
Lets Recap!
Go back to my Blog of 30th August,
Go back to my Blog of 30th August,
when we placed a sign and 'not for your dog bags'
It said:
New sign today, with accompanying 'not for your dog bags'.
Bizarre as life is, the WT Council have a policy on what to do when your
dog drops in public (see below), but no rules or recommendations for 'people's
pooh.' Here at Pooh Corner, we have taken the initiative to provide bags (and
gloves) to help you in those embarrassing moments when you are just tou-louse
to hold on!
We know all that drops on to 'pooh corner' seeps into the water.....
and we are still waiting for WTC to build a public toilet....
..........................................................................................Where do you think it should go?

Cleaning Up
When your dog is in a public place you are always required to clean up
after it. Dog faeces are unpleasant and damage the environment. Cleaning up
can be done simply and easily with the aid of a scooper or plastic bag and
placing the faeces into the nearest rubbish bin.
=This does not apply to a guide dog that is accompanying a wholly or
partially blind person.
Failure to clean up after your dog can result in a fine of up to $300.
Rain dissolves dog faeces and they are washed into our waterways.
Marine plant and animal life are affected by this pollution. Australian
beaches are closed for several days after rain because of this type of
pollution. Dog faeces contain E-coli bacteria, which can cause ongoing
illness in people

Great for you Don-whoever you are, you have t least put it out there. Where ar e WTC? All this time, their arrogance is deafening. Yesterday I was fishing, with three others. No toilet anywhere. what are we supposed to do? Drop it in the river, or hide it in the trees?
Why can't the sailing club let us use theirs? Seems simple?
