WOKINGHAM Borough Council is set to launch a new service to tackle anti-social behaviour next month.
An in-house team will be available to deal with a range of residents’ concerns from Friday, April 1.
These could include noisy neighbours, fly tipping, car meets and other bothersome vehicle use and unlawful encampments.
Cllr Bill Soane, executive member for neighbourhoods and communities, said that the borough council is pleased to be launching the service.
“It will be a one-stop-shop to tackle all sorts of nuisance behaviours that negatively impact our residents’ lives,” he said.
“This will be available seven days a week, including weekend nights, because we know that is when a lot of incidents occur.
“The team will also be proactive and go out patrolling known trouble hot spots to stop problems before they happen.”
As well as anti-social behaviours officers, the service includes an animal warden, food safety and licensing officers and a housing team.
It can be contacted during office hours via email on: [email protected] or by calling: 0118 974 6000
The out of hours service is available from 5pm until midnight on Fridays and Saturdays and during the daytime at weekends and bank holidays, by calling 0800 212 111.
