Monthly 'Walkabout'

We chose an area of the parish to walk around each month, and are often accompanied by York City Councils street environment team.

Update on dog walking on the recreation ground
Thank you for attending the meeting of Rawcliffe Parish Council; voicing your ideas and concerns in
relation to issue of dog fouling and suggestions as to ways to improve the area for all.
Your suggestions where further discussed later in the meeting and it was agreed that the starting point for change would be:

More dog waste bins at strategic sites around the Recreation ground:
- Staindale Close entrance/exit
- Bridge over the beck to the rear of rec. ground
- Exit at Manor Lane
- Exit at Boothwood Road snicket

These are the initial sites for approval – please forward any further suggestions, to me As soon as possible.

‘Community’ orientated signage; encouraging users to take pride in the area; we are presently looking at such phrases [badges could be worn by those who wish to promote the same message]:
- ‘This is Your Recreation Ground – Please leave as you found it; Clean and Tidy!’
- Take Pride in Your Recreation Ground! Please leave the area free from litter and dog waste
- ‘Use it! Don’t abuse it!
These are initial ideas – we welcome your suggestions!
Strategically placed maps of the area –illustrating siting of dog waste and litter bins on the site.
