Connecting with residents

Local campaigner Sarah Moore led a team of six people talking  to residents in Dorset Street, Stuart Place, Highland Terrace, Ayr Street.

Lots of conversations took place from residents parking, HMO's and rubbish in gardens.

We have even reported some large pot holes that we observed whilst there.

We will be following up on all the concerns that were raised over the next few days and will reply to individual residents concerned.

Westmoreland Graffiti Update

The number of complaints received by residents about the grafitti around the area have increased recently and we are keen to get this sorted as soon as possible.



On Friday, Local Beat Manager PC Adrian Secker said: “Graffiti is a problem in the area and it’s something we take very seriously. It’s criminal damage, not art, and costs everyone in the community tens of thousands of pounds a year to clean up. We work closely with our partners at Bath and North East Somerset Council to investigate who is responsible, and we take a very robust approach to bringing them to justice. We have recently made some arrests, a number of people have been bailed and we are awaiting a charging decision from the Crown Prosecution Service. As ever, we rely very much on the public to be our eyes and ears – so my message to everyone is to be a good neighbour and tell the police if you know anyone who is spoiling your community.”

Since this statement was released, we are pleased to confirm that one individual has been formally charged and will appear in court shortly.  Investigations are on-going into the activities of other people and further updates will be provided when they are available.

Sunny Saturday

With such a sunny day in Bath, we could not resist the opportunity to be out and about talking to residents and helping to care for our community.

Sharon and I were joined by a number of people on the platform at Oldfield Park Station for photos. Next week, the Council’s Cabinet is due to discuss business case funding for the Metro West project. This is a joint project with the other West of England Authorities, which aims to provide enhanced local rail services for the West of England, more details will be in our April focus newsletter.

We then went and took a look around the Heritage Fair at Bath City FC, very interesting information on display.



Sharon and I then went onto a very busy ward surgery at the Ascension Church, Claude Avenue, talking to a number of local residents about a range of issues and concerns.


I then decided to make the most of this bright weather and went to pick some litter in the ward.  In just 30 minutes I picked up 2 bags of litter.



We will be out and about again tomorrow, so if you have any issues feel free to stop us and have a chat.

Highland Terrace

By Sarah Mooore

The telegraph pole at the end of Highland Terrace has been repaired after being reported last week after wires were seen hanging loose.
