The No Tipping sign next to waste ground beside Newton Way, opposite Rankine Close, threatens a maximum fine of £20,000. I don't know if the city council has some complex scale of differential fines depending on location, or if they've recently upped the fines, but an August 2009 photo http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1438107 of a sign elsewhere in the city has a maximum fine of £1,000.
