    The town I was living in at the time did this about 10 years ago. It was a huge success, all of the problems were caused by a handful of people who didn’t care to clean up. They were given finds and one person even got community duty and had their dog taken away from them (the dog was abused). Afterwards the problem was mostly gone.

    Yes it costs money, but the results are excellent.

    I mean, my shitty apartment did this too. They required a fecal sample from every pet so if there was a problem they knew who to blame

      I had this idea years ago (requiring dog owners to provide a DNA sample, test poo, fine owners). It’ll never happen in my country (UK), all the systems already in place are broken and fucked let alone adding a new licensing system. It’s getting crazy over here with bully XL attacks though so maybe something will change once enough toddlers & pensioners have been mauled to death.

    Keep in mind that the mayor is infamous for his positions and opinions. Any publicity is good publicity. He is far right and among other things he supports torture, death penalty, the great replacement theory. He is a fucking nutjob. For reference.
