ASB Issues around Highley 

ASB Warning letters are being drafted now using the Crime and Disorder Act 1998, This is the gateway for dealing with ASB perpetrators for ongoing issues.

ASB warning letters are aimed at Juvenile youths, dealing with adults will be slightly different but this is still within the crime and disorder act   

STAR housing stock managers, housing officers and I are shortly going to be visiting addresses that are linked to the perpetrators of ASB to remind parents around parental responsibility and the conditions of their respective tenancy’s. 

ASB Neighbour related issue Highley  

Following numerous complaints and a historic failed prosecution I have spent a considerable amount of time in Multi -agency meetings over the last months dealing with an on-going noise related neighbour dispute which finally after issuing community protection warning notices has seen the victims get some relief and peace from constant noise

Dangerous Dog out of control Highley 

A Community protection warning notice has been issued to the owner of a large black dog near Netherton lane following numerous reports of a dog out of control, the dog was seized and taken under a warrant organised by me, however the threshold for further action was not met this time and the dog has been returned to the owner with strict conditions to adhere too . PC Nolan has visited the site on and off numerous times over the last 3 weeks and have only sighted the dog contained within its boundaries which is one of its conditions.
