Dog Fouling
Incidents of Dog Fouling
We have received reports of increased incidents of dog fouling on footpaths around the village.
We can confirm that all East Riding of Yorkshire Council litter bins may be used for disposing of bagged up dog waste collected whilst walking your dog. If anyone leaves bags of dog waste on trees, bushes, the base of a lamp post etc. they are committing a littering offence that may also be punished by way of a £75 fixed penalty being issued.
The great majority of dog walkers do pick up after their dog and get really annoyed with the few who don’t as they don’t want to be “tarred with the same brush.” There is no excuse for not picking up.
If you would like to report an offender you can report an offence to ERYC please click here.

Funding approved for new Play Park in Cherry Burton
The children in Cherry Burton are set to get a new Play Park facility thanks to a £34,030.00 grant from FCC Communities Foundation. The total investment will be £50,630.00 with a contribution from the Parish Council of £16,600.00.
The money will be used to buy additional new equipment which includes a Multiplay Unit, Wheelchair Accessible Roundabout, Double Perch and a Metal Nest Swing to complement the current play facilities. There will be a soft rubber floor surface under and around the equipment. The new play area is situated opposite the village pond in the centre of the village.
Councillor John Wilson, Chairman of Cherry Burton Parish Council believes the facility will make a huge difference to the children living in Cherry Burton and surrounding villages. John hopes the new Play Park will be open by April. He says “This project will provide a huge boost to the children of Cherry Burton. It is fantastic that FCC Communities Foundation has awarded us this money and we are really looking forward to our new Play Park taking shape over the next 4 months.”
FCC Communities Foundation is a not-for-profit business that awards grants for community projects through the Landfill Communities Fund. Cheryl Raynor, FCC Community
Foundations Local Grant Manager says: “We are delighted to be supporting the Council to bring this project to fruition, the new pieces of equipment will make a real difference to the children and encourage further use of this already well used facility. We look forward to work starting shortly”.
