Report of Director of Community Protection Additional documents:
Minutes: Abdul Ghaffar, Neighbourhood Development Officer, presented the report, updating the Committee on priorities and issues in the wards, issues being addressed through Neighbourhood Action Team (NAT) meetings, such as new students / bins on streets, works at Priory Park to regain ‘Green Flag’ status and the ‘Good Neighbour’ campaign, and forthcoming events and activities in the local areas to improve social cohesion, such as local Community Centre coffee mornings, various fun days and ward Councillor ‘Ward Walks’.
During discussion, it was stated that:
(a) all 12 CCTV cameras at the Bridgeway Centre have been upgraded to Digital, with 10 cameras having live recording feeds to Woodlands Control Room, and the remaining 2 cameras having live feed to Woodlands but being recorded locally. Additional works have been identified to resolve this issue and should be completed by the end of June 2019;
(b) phone boxes across the Meadows pose a challenge as they are being used by drug users to make deals and also a place to use drugs. Abdul Ghaffar stated he will meet with Abu Belim (Community Protection) to put a case forward to BT for removal of the phone boxes, and Councillor Edwards will take the issue up with Paddy Tipping, Nottinghamshire Police and Crime Commissioner;
(c) the Meadows ‘Week of Action’ will be during week commencing 23 September 2019;
(d) the Lenton ‘Fun Day’, postponed from 8 June due to bad weather, is likely to be re-scheduled for the end of September, hopefully to coincide with the university ‘Fresher Week’;
(e) ‘Friends of Wollaton Park’ volunteers have started to restore the historic 1780s walled kitchen garden and it is open for tours by prior arrangement with key holders.
RESOLVED to note the update. |
