The proposed ban on feeding pigeons stems from local residents' complaints about the nuisances caused by pigeon waste, sparking a discussion on hygiene and public space cleanliness.
Pigeon droppings can significantly damage buildings due to their corrosive nature, leading to a proposal for a Public Spaces Protection Order to mitigate their impact.
The council's consideration of a Public Spaces Protection Order reflects a broader concern about wildlife feeding contributing to hygiene issues and the attraction of pests like rats.
If implemented, the ban would entail penalties for noncompliance, including a £100 fine for feeding pigeons and up to £1,000 if prosecuted.
