Public Rights of Way - Petition requesting that public rights be restricted along the three snickets leading into The Reeves, Westfield using Gating Orders.
03/11/2009 - Public Rights of Way - Proposal to gate three snickets at The Reeves, Westfield Ward, York
RESOLVED: That the Executive Member:
(i) Notes that the door to door survey results did not produce a majority in favour of the full time closure of any of the snickets;
(ii) Agrees that the night time only gating order implementation process be undertaken for snickets 2 and 3 as detailed in the Officers report.
REASON: The level of crime and ASB occurring in the area, and also associated with the snickets, meets the criteria of the legislation, which allows the closure of snickets that are found to be facilitating the commission of persistent criminal activity and/or ASB.
