SINN Féin Councillor Mickey Cooper has said Derry City and Strabane District Council are to step patrols following complaints about dog fouling on Academy Road.
“I have recently received a number of complaints about excess dog fouling in the Nicholson area of Academy Road,” said Cllr Cooper.
“As a result I have spoken to the council’s dog warden who has agreed to carry out extra patrols in the area.
”In addition new signs will be installed in the area in the next few weeks warning dog owners that they will be fined if they do not clean up after their dogs.
“Hopefully this will address the issue but if any resident continues to experience further problems I would urge them not to hesitate in contacting me.
