Circus Posters Littering The Town Oakham Town Clerks Allison Grieves Failure to ensure
agreements are kept.
although Rutland County Councils website clearly states fly posting like this is illegal
Oakham Town Council seeks signed agreements from Circus's and Fun Fairs that they
will take down any posters before leaving town and normally this happens.
This year saw the arrival of a new circus who posted on every available space throughout
the town.
A man employed by the circus told me they would remove the posters.
They failed to remove the posters.
I have removed some in my street, the circus used a heavy duty tape to fix them.
I made several communications with the clerk hoping she would get the circus to
return and remove the posters which are making the town look tatty.
Due to unlawful sanctions imposed by Oakham Town Council because the Clerk
does not like to be approached when things are not done I can no longer follow this
up.
