POLICING/ASBGraffiti Clean UpMay I suggest an allocation to do a Special ‘clean-up’ removal of the proliferating grafitti that’s spoiling everyone’s respect for our Town environment, and which NSC don’t seem to have the wherewithal or interest in doing? Perhaps to include some form of future prevention too - eg. Police action or warnings to the perpetrators - who must be known amongst their peers in the two local secondary schools?!
A structures one-off project to 'clean up' Nailsea's public environment to remove eyesore graffiti, scrawlings and disfigurements to walls, street furniture, sub-stations etc
To remove the graffiti from Mizzymead underpass - maybe on a regular basis (every 6-8 weeks) and from walls in Mizzymead Road.
9. Clean up the graffiti and catch the culprit on the expensive new CCTV system.
Graffiti has become a problem - tackle this
Across Nailsea Mizzymead underpass.Back to basics - tackle the litter problem + rats + graffiti/drugs which is spoiling our ton. Joint council/police schemes to tackle anti-social behaviour e.g. Millennium Park.8NoThe Council voted this item as 'No'. It will not be looked into further.
This item was declined due to it being outside of the Council's gift.
However this is something we are trying to help with by providing equipment.

POLICING/ASBPoliceFor more police on foot to cut down on antisocial behaviour - especially with graffiti appearing every where in Nailsea now
Ensure that upgrading of infrastructure happens before expansion takes place Get the Police and Crime Commissioner to deliver on promise to increase police present on our streets and address anti-social behaviour problems.

POLICING/ASBCCTVI would like to see cctv cameras in place to help combat anti social behaviour and littering.
CCTV monitored public areas with suitable responders to deter anti-social behaviour and wacky baccy users!
CCTV cameras covering Millennium Park.
As for cctv cameras around the town centre, Millennium Park and Golden Valley fields.
Lighting and CCTV from Scotch Horn Way through the footpath to Millenium Park with improved footpath across to Scotch Horn Centre and on to Tesco (Present convoluted route which is very uneven and behind Scotch Horn Centre overgrown with many puddles and mud after rain!). Rose garden benches are known for wacky baccy users - perhaps a hotline to community support officers in collaboration with the cctv control?
Absolutely no idea of cost - I'm just keen to see better use of the local taxes I pay!
New direct path across the Scotch Horn Park grass area from the rose garden: Unknown (£10000?). (Can be integrated into a new swimming pool extension behind the Scotch Horn Centre?) CCTV : unknown. (low level) Path lighting: (£1000) (perhaps solar powered low-level lights to avoid intrusive lighting of local residents' properties) Policing: Unknown
I think that, given my proposals, the reasons are self-explanatory.
The footpath and park does not feel safe at night where there is restricted lighting with youths gathering in the rose garden area.
4N/AThe Council advised that Nailsea already has CCTV monitoring the town, however this may need publicising to residents.
