The Joint Enforcement Team set up by the District Council this year has quickly established itself as an invaluable resource in Mole Valley District Council’s efforts to address anti-social behaviour and low-level crime quickly and effectively.

The Team’s three enforcement officers have responded to a wide range of Anti-Social Behaviour cases since April, most of which have involved abandoned vehicles and fly-tips.

In an effort to further address and put measures in place to prevent Anti-Social Behaviour, the District Council will soon be introducing 15 cameras at identified fly-tipping hotspots to deter individuals from illegally dumping waste and potentially capture footage of perpetrators who choose to do so regardless.

We are delighted at the very positive feedback we have received from local communities about the way in which the JET has been in responding to and investigating reports of Anti-Social Behaviour and believe that it is important that residents feel that they can report anti-social behaviour to the District Council and have the confidence that something will be done.
