Update: 2025-12-10
Description
An elderly man, Roy Marsh, was fined for spitting out a leaf, which he claims was blown into his mouth by the wind. He joined calls for more responsible litter enforcement after the incident, which he believes was an overzealous approach by council officers. His daughter and a local councilor have also reported similar incidents, suggesting that enforcement teams are unfairly targeting the elderly. The council maintains that their enforcement teams only approach individuals committing environmental offenses, aiming to change behavior and ensure a clean environment.
