Issue

ANTI SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR
You have told us that Anti-Social behaviour causes you concern. This can be things like excessive noise, parties, smoking drugs and more. We will be working with partners to ensure we can tackle these issues and prevent them occurring again.

Action

The local neighbourhood team conduct regular patrols in highlighted problem areas.
We record all ASB on our shared system with Harborough District Council and together we will do what we can to reduce problems and provide you with the satisfaction.
We continue to encourage you to report concerns and locations to us, we need this information to conduct more targeted patrols.
When dealing with those involved we look to use the incremental approach, this will include taking details, contacting parents (if children) then looking to give warnings, acceptable behaviour contracts and then onto prosecution or use of ASB powers.

Issue

Highways obstructions
You told us that you were concerned about obstructions to the highway. This includes parking which could cause dangerous situations, road traffic collisions and other situations which may cause an obstruction to the highway

Action

Officers from the local beat team conduct regular patrols around the area and are mindful of any obstructions to the highway including footpaths. Officers also conduct local beat surgery's and listen to any residents with concerns around highways that have been obstructed.
