Decision:

To approve the removal of the early payment option for those who are issued with a fixed penalty notice

Reasons for the decision:

The council has long advocated taking a serious stance against fly-tipping and offenders. Removing the early repayment option for fixed penalty notices is consistent with that position

The alternative option is to leave the early repayment option in place, however this will not support our efforts to reduce this type of anti-social behaviour.
