Current Priorities
Issue
Antisocial behaviour - general.
Action
Marked high-visibility patrols are being carried out in the ward by local beat officers, supported by the Neighbourhood Task Force’s Problem-Solving Police Community Support Officer. Appropriate Proactive Management Plans will be created to document the activity, including the powers, policies, and legislation used to support it.
Beat officers will maintain close contact with the local community to gather information and intelligence, and to highlight positive outcomes through the My Community Voice platform.
Issue
E-scooters and/or nuisance bikes.
Action
Beat officers will work in collaboration with the Neighbourhood Task Force and problem-solving police community support officers to tackle this issue, using operational toolkits tailored to the specific challenges. These operations have previously delivered positive results and have been well received by the community. Updates and outcomes will be shared through My Community Voice.
Issue
Fly tipping.
Action
Beat officers and Neighbourhood Task Force staff will patrol areas where fly-tipping has been reported and will work in partnership with the Council’s Waste Crime Team to carry out joint operations. They will also check waste carrier licences and inspect vehicles suspected of transporting scrap to ensure all documentation is valid and compliant.
