Ringgold City Manager Dan Wright wants to stop people from dumping tires illegally in two locations in the city.
“Behind Ingles people dumped 100 tires on private property,” said Wright. “The property owner let us know. We got the police department and codes enforcement involved. The property owner put out a camera.”
Wright said the owner would like the city of Ringgold to pick up the tires and help find the people dumping tires.
“We have prosecuted people for a number of years for dumping trash and debris and we will continue to,” said Wright. “We are using cameras and motion detecting video cameras.”
He said between Battlefield Parkway and I-75 another illegal dumping site is piling up with 100 more tires.
