What happens next?
At the first report stage, we will ask you how you want to be contacted and use this throughout the duration of your anti-social behaviour (ASB) issue.
As we work with you to resolve your ASB issue, we will:
- agree an action plan with you
- keep in regular contact with you
- make it clear when we will next be in contact with you
- keep all information and records relating to your issue confidential
- advise you of the initial actions we will take to resolve your issue and what the expected outcome could be
There are a number of follow up actions we can take against those individuals causing nuisance and ASB.
The action taken depends on:
- Type of incident and the impact on other residents
- Quality of the evidence and the availability of witnesses and their willingness to provide evidence
