Federal Municipal Council takes illegal dumping & littering seriously and utilises CCTV cameras to prevent instances of dumping and littering.

​

There are over 950 community bins in public places throughout the LGA to minimise littering, introducing more during summer periods when foot traffic increases on our lake front area.
