Minutes:
The
Deputy Mayor and Executive Member for Culture and Communities and the Director
of Environment and Community Services submitted a report for the Executive’s
consideration. The purpose of the report was to provide a summary of the
priorities within Middlesbrough’s Community Safety Plan 2020-22 (see Appendix 1
of the submitted report) and set out its delivery plan (see Appendix 2).
The
Crime and Disorder Act 1998 placed statutory obligations on local authorities
and the police to work in partnership with health authorities and other
relevant agencies to prevent crime and disorder.
Legislation
required the partnership to produce a plan detailing how it intended to tackle
crime and disorder and develop strategies to tackle short, medium and long-term
priorities.
During
2019/2020 the Community Safety Partnership held a series of multi-agency
workshops and three overarching priorities had been identified - Perceptions
and Feeling Safe, Tackling the Root Causes and Locality Working (including the
town centre).
The
objectives in respect of each priority were outlined in the submitted report.
ORDERED
That the annually revised
delivery plan aiming to deliver on the priorities within the Community Safety
Plan 2020-2022, as agreed by the Community Safety Partnership, be approved.
REASON
It was a statutory
requirement for the Local Authority’s Community Safety Partnership to develop
and produce a Community Safety Plan under the 1998 Crime and Disorder Act.
The key objectives set out
in the plan were based upon assessment of crime and disorder issues across the
town and reflected the views of the community and partners.
