THE ILLEGAL and nasty habit of persons urinating against the fence of the St William Grant Park in downtown Kingston is continuing despite repeated complaints to the authorities and the police presence in the area.

Now the unsightly urine stains mark the sidewalk, while persons who walk by the recently refurbished park have to stop their breath.

The park is equipped with several clean bathrooms, but still people, mainly grown men, insist on urinating against the wall.

It is time that this practice is stopped and persons who continue should be arrested and prosecuted.
