Officers from East Riding of Yorkshire Council have held a street surgery in Bridlington to canvass residents on anti-social behaviour in their area.
Council officers knocked on doors, spoke to residents, and acted in response to feedback.
A number of warning letters have been sent to residents identified as perpetrating anti-social behaviour and the Streetscene enforcement team are investigating other matters highlighted during the surgery.
Action is also being taken with regards to reports of horses being illegally tethered in play parks.
The street surgery formed part of the council’s activities for anti-social behaviour awareness week. Officers held events across the East Riding to hear concerns from residents and educate young people about anti-social behaviour.
East Riding of Yorkshire council is also making a concerted multi-agency effort to reduce crime and antisocial behaviour in the Bridlington area, as part of the ‘Clear, Hold, Build’ scheme.
The council has obtained closure orders for properties in Bridlington which have seen persistent and disruptive anti-social behaviour. As a result, no one can enter these properties for three months except for officers from the council, police, other emergency services or utility providers.
Councillor Lyn Healing, cabinet member for communities and public protection said
'"We’re dedicated to ensuring that the East Riding is a good place to live and taking firm action against anti-social behaviour. I encourage residents to report anti-social behaviour wherever it occurs, so that action can be taken."
