Poop and Scoop Enforced


The town of Fort Frances says it will be enforcing a by-law that requires owners to pick up after their animals while in parks and the waterfront.

CAO Mark McCaig says the problem appears to have gotten worse.

"I just remind everyone that there's a $75.00 fine for not cleaning up," says McCaig, "and we will be enforcing it in the next little while because it's going worse a little bit over this past winter so we will be addressing it."

McCaig says pet owners should show consideration for others by helping to keep area's clean.
