  Surely apart from investigation and hopefully prosecution for the latest flytipping.
  I thought councils after having served notice and notice period had elapsed were able to undertake clearance and have the costs recouped through the courts the derisory fine is on top of those costs?

  
  
  
  I think you may be referring to outside work Reg such as cutting back undergrowth that is blocking a pavement or making safe a wall/fence that looks likely to be a danger to pedestrians. Actually going onto private property counts as trespassing so no council would take a chance on that. Prosecution on flytipping is of course dependant on there being evidence of who done it which is very difficult with builder's rubble.
