A £300 fine has been issued to a fly-tipper who left plastic bottles and face masks strewn across the path of a Stevenage cemetery.
Stevenage Borough Council issued the fixed penalty notice after the rubbish was reported to them and an investigation was carried out.
Councillor John Gardner, executive member for environment and regeneration, said: “Fly-tipping is dangerous, unsightly, and costs us time and money to clear. This rubbish included used masks, which puts our staff in danger as well as wildlife. Fortunately we were able to identify the perpetrator through items included in the fly-tip.
