Mr Samuel Wnek was found guilty at Scarborough Magistrates Court on Friday 1 March of fly-tipping in Porrett Lane, Hinderwell. A pile of waste material on the side of the road was reported to our Waste Enforcement team and, after lengthy investigations through various organisations, the waste was traced back to Mr Wnek. The court fined Mr Wnek a total of £1000 with an additional £450 costs to pay and a £100 victim surcharge.
Andy Skelton, Head of Environmental Services said:
“I am very pleased with this outcome and hope that it demonstrates our commitment to protecting our streets and communities from those who refuse to deal lawfully with their rubbish without any thought for the environment and how their actions impact on others. It was a particularly serious fly-tipping incident and the sentence reflects this. We will continue to have no hesitation in taking action against people who choose to dump waste illegally.”
