A MINDLESS act of vandal-ism has taken place at the fountain on Morecambe's Marine Road West.
Someone found it amusing to place a soap substance in the fountain over the Easter Bank Holiday weekend and, of course, we got foam coming out all over the place.
I have to inform the culprit that nearby residents are not amused and I am sure visitors to the resort feel the same.
It is a sad reflection on some people when we cannot protect something which makes the front look attractive from such stupid acts. I hope the person responsible feels very proud of themselves.
I only hope whoever did this can be caught and made an example of by charging them for the work required to clean up the fountain.
Unfortunately this will be extra unnecessary work for the council staff.
It's well past the time we started to come down heavily on these people who have no respect for others and the facilities of Morecambe.
Cllr David Whitaker, Morecambe.
