August July
Dog Walker-Conway Drive Tony reported back after looking at Police logs and contacting Iain that this was hopefully an isolated incident and there had been no more calls to the Police.
Car Parking Haddon Place/Lytham Road Tony had looked at the parking during the day and had found no problems but he hadn’t looked at the issue in the early mornings as he only started shift at 8am. He said he would look at it again on an early start one morning. A resident said that after the letter drop that Iain had done she had photocopied the letter and put on car drivers windscreen if necessary.
Contact Neighbourhood Watch re; Terrorism Iain had contacted the neighbourhood coordinator and as yet had no reply, the course was a “one off” on the 23rd Aug and was a role play of what you would do if there was a terrorist incident. Tony said he would see if he could find out if they would do any more or give a talk to the group.
June
1. Check House on Garstang Road Iain has spoken to the next door neighbour re; the house, it has now been boarded up and there have been no reports of any further problems. Car Parking On Haddon Place/Lytham Road Iain reported that he had been round and had a look several times and had not noticed any problems other than the residents in the evening. A resident said that there was still a problem when turning right especially in the mornings from7-45 to 8-15am.

Golf Mill Lane Park.
1 CBM PC Iain Shrager said that he thought it was now all sorted out, although one resident mentioned that she had seen some young golfers with their bags etc, but they hadn’t caused any problems. Iain said if they did cause problems to get back in touch with him. 2 YOUTH DISORDER, DRINKING AND ANTI-SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR
1 Iain said that both he and Neil do regular patrols when on duty unfortunately Hillcroft and Landsown hill seem to be having big problems with youth disorder and he would keep an eye on the situation. 2 LITTER BOYS LANE
Neil reported that he had not seen any problems with the litter but when he did he asked the youths to put the litter in the bins provided. A resident remarked that she had seen children from what she thought was “Our Lady’s” with a teacher going for the swimming lesson and the pupils had thrown litter! It was suggested that if this happened again she should ring the school in question.
April
Inspector Ian Mills introduced himself, saying that he had come back to Lea in March and had worked in the area 14mths prior to this with Inspector John Ainsworth so he knew the area very well and some of its problems.
He had no objection to members of the public ringing him at Lea with any problems. He said that he attends a meeting quarterly with the Cllr. At the town hall so this would be another way of contact.
He says he likes to attend some of the Pacts in the Lea sector.
There was an open forum for questions and queries from the floor on Police issues.
CROWN PROSCEUTION SERVICE PARAMETERS
The group agreed it would be a good idea to have a representative from the CPS to attend one of our meetings to explain their role.

Visit from Inspector Ian Mills, he was unable to attend this months PACT but will attend next month, as he is on leave. Crown prosecution service parameters (same as above)
February
Obstruction parking issues Hawkhurst Ave,Garstang Road,Blackbull Lane and Queens Drive
CBM PC Iain Shrager and PCSO Neil Higgins had been round the area on a few occasions and found on one occasion maybe one car that could have been accused of obstruction. They have been round to all the staff at the Banks, Travel agents and Estate agents to warn them and customers to park considerately without causing obstruction.
One resident asked if we could have some signs in all of the businesses to ask the public to park considerately. Iain said he had already put letters in the windows of the businesses but would organise some more signs.

January Parking issue on Blackbull Lane, still ongoing, Iain said he had words with the resident but no go. One of the residents in question wrote to Mr Harding and Tony Martin and had got a reply from Mathew Tomlinson who said he would look into the problem and get back to her.Cllr Hammond said that the PACT had gone as far as we could with the matter, the resident said she appreciated this and had put this in her correspondence that she had good support from the PACT but their hands were tied.
Youth Bus on Conway Park Neil said he had been on leave but as far as he knew the bus had been on the park as it was in the ASDA area but had not been supported so they had come to Conway park. Neil said he would catch up with Ronald this week.
