Current priorities
1. Anti-social behaviour (ASB), drugs related offending around Stanton Street, New Houghton 2. Nuisance vehicles around New Houghton and car meets around Doe Lea
1. We will carry out high visibility and plain clothed patrols in the area, talking to members of the public to identify offenders, utilising Derbyshire Alert and Community Catch ups. 2. Tackle the nuisance and anti-social use of motor vehicles by conducting targeted enforcement using Section 59 powers, disrupting identified offenders through intelligence-led policing, and working with partners to prevent access to hotspot locations and engage the community.
