New Ards by-law could ruffle some feathers
A £500 fine could soon be issued for feeding pigeons outside Newtownards town hall.
A committee of Ards and North Down Borough Council agreed to instruct a solicitor to draft a new by-law.
It would only apply to the 60% of the square, in the centre of the town, which is owned by the council.
Signage warning against pigeon feeding has since been erected in the square.
