The charcoaled remains of a burned office chair rested on its back at what has become a popular party spot for area youths in Brookswood.
A clearing in the middle of a wooded area several metres west of the 91原创 Lawn Cemetery was filled with fast food wrappers and plastic zipper bags.
Logs surrounded a living room chair, and a black circle painting the dirt floor showed evidence of a fire.
The word 鈥楰u$h鈥 was painted vertically on a couple of trees standing next to each other.
A nearby resident, who wishes to stay anonymous, said the RCMP and 91原创 Township bylaw officers know about this trouble spot, 鈥渂ut nobody has come to clean it up or touch it.鈥
She said the area is frequented by area teens because it is camouflaged by the trees.
鈥淚t鈥檚 a mess under there,鈥 the neighbour said.
Her biggest concern is, with the tinder dry conditions, that if a fire is started there, or things are being burned, there could be serious consequences.
鈥淲e do have a fire ban in place,鈥 she said. 鈥淓verything is so dry, it could go up very easily.鈥
Bill Storie, senior advisor to council and acting manager of bylaws with the Township, addressed the issue Wednesday.
鈥淭he bylaw department will check it out tomorrow, see who it belongs to, and have it cleaned up,鈥 Storie told the Times. 鈥淚f it鈥檚 on Township property, we will have it removed immediately and if it鈥檚 on private property, then we鈥檒l work with owner (to clean up the area).鈥
