Is Community Safety involving senior citizens, e.g. the East Kent Association of Senior Citizens?
A. Yes, we working with the voluntary sector and community wardens also receive feedback from senior citizens. Q. How is all this information disseminated to the public? A. Individual complaints are always responded to. Sometimes the complainant will be visited. For bigger issues, either the PACT panel will provide feedback or information will be given through the media either in newspapers or on the website. Q. Some vandalism seems to be invited because of the way areas have been landscaped, for example using gravelled areas. Is consideration given to the possibility of smashing glass with pebbles, etc. during the planning process? A. During planning consideration is given to right type of landscaping in order to reduce problems and the police do give advice also. Lacy Dixon gave her contact details and invited the audience to contact her if they had any specific issues they wished to raise.
