Is Key decision?: No
Is subject to call in?: No
The purpose of this report is to seek approval
to make a Public Spaces Protection Order pursuant to powers
contained in Sections 59 to 65 of the Anti-Social Behaviour, Crime
and Policing Act 2014. The proposed terms of the Order are the
installation of gates on the highway, as detailed on the map in
Schedule 1 and the imposition of restrictions upon other behaviours
within the gated area, as detailed in Schedule 2.
RESOLVED - That: the preferred option is the
making of the Public Spaces Protection Order with the terms
detailed in Schedules 1 and 2 (Appendix 2).
Option 1 - Install Alleygates
Option 2 - The alternative to installing gates is to ‘target
harden’ all properties on either side of the alleyway,
however the nature of some of the crimes and incidents and the cost
of such action makes this alternative unrealistic and cost
prohibitive.

Other reasons / organisations consulted
Ward members have requested the PSPO and the
funding of gates will be directly from Members’
budgets.
