1. Police Update There had been little change in the type and regularity of incidents from the last CPLC meeting. Police operations were ongoing and focused on anti-social behaviour, creeper and house burglaries, underage drinking and driving whilst under intoxication. Aghalee had been reasonably quiet, whilst Ballinderry Residents’ Youth Diversion Scheme, it was hoped, would make a positive contribution to community cohesion. ( For Glenavy see below)
2. Aghalee Traffic violations were still of concern, and the police would continue to monitor speed, and as with other areas, increased attention would turn to secondary and B Class roads to deter road crime : especially drivers continuing to drive whilst under the influence of drugs and/or alcohol.
3. Ballinderry. Situation in Ballinderry, with regarding anti-social behaviour and property damage, appeared to be showing a general improvement. Stephen commented on the excellent facilities at Lower Ballinderry Primary School.
4. Glenavy Henry brought to the attention of the meeting his, and the residents’ concerns due to repeated small fires in the grounds of the church and other locations within Glenavy. It was felt that it was only a matter of time before either serious injury or extensive property damage was reported. The police would increase patrol time to Glenavy, but all members were reminded to encourage speedy and accurate reporting to the police, as soon as an incident has, or is about to occur!
5. Maghaberry Traffic violations, especially speeding, were discussed with the police intention to increase the level of attention to the areas highlighted by Will and others.
6. Moira The new proposed changes to road alignments, traffic lights, traffic control and public safety were discussed in detail. Developments will be awaited with interest.
