Issue - meetings

            The Board received an update on activities and initiatives delivered to reduce incidents of anti-social behaviour and unauthorised fires on mischief night and in the period up to bonfire night in 2016. The Board noted that the bonfire removal initiative was carried out by a local contractor and they responded to 11 requests from the Council and Police Officers. It was anticipated that due to Bonfire night falling on a weekend, and with good weather conditions, there would be a high level of calls/incidents; however this was not the case.

            On behalf of the Board, the Chair, congratulated all those involved in Operation Treacle for their significant work and the success they had achieved in 2016.

            RESOLVED: That the presentation be received.
