It's an issue that is most commonly known to inner cities. But certainly not here on The Cape.
But it is here.
The Yarmouth PD is promising to keep a close eye out for folks too lazy to dispose of their trash properly.
Illegal dumping has been an issue all across the town for months and the latest incident saw a trash can's-worth of household garbage left rather neatly near the corner of Monroe Lane and Forest Road.
Dumpers have also been leaving landscaping debris and building demolition spoils along local roads.
Police plan to watch over popular dumping spots, but they also have a pretty good success rate in locating the people responsible after the fact.
