News from the Rickmansworth Liberal Democrats
This year it is Watersmeet's 40th Birthday . The venue has provided facilities and opportunities for many and varied entertainments and lots of other events. We are lucky to have it. Celebrations are being planned ! ………………………………………………………………………. Some weeks ago TRDC carried out a consultation about whether the Council should use the new legislation on the Protection of Public Spaces to encourage/ persuade/ penalise the minority of local dog owners who do not control their dogs appropriately in public spaces, such as the Aquadrome. They need to be encouraged to do so and to collect their dog's faeces and put them into the appropriate dog bins. Most dog owner are very responsible, but TRDC does get complaints about those who are not.
