Issue - meetings

To seek approval to introduce a Public Spaces Protection Order in order to control nuisance from gatherings of motor vehicles at and around Tinsley Road Bridge, Eastwood.

The Committee discussed the enforcement of the PSPO, with particular reference to measuring how successful an order had been.  It was noted that a lack of enforcement could show that the order had discouraged anti-social behaviour and was of benefit to the local community by preventing the offending conduct.  There was concern that problems might be moved to other areas and it was noted that should this happen powers of dispersal or further PSPOs could be used. 

RESOLVED that in accordance with the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime and Policing Act 2014, the making of the Eastwood Vehicle Nuisance PSPO, as detailed in appendix 1, be approved.
