Members' Meeting December 13th

 

 

There was again a good turnout for the Members’ Meeting at the Old Hall Hotel today, where Inspector Martin Coey from the Police and Councillors Caitlin Biskell, John Faulkner and Tony Kemp were able to update members about current issues.

 

Police: Inspector Coey told us that crime was again down in the area, with two noticeable exceptions: motor vehicles and burglaries from small commercial premises. There had been a 50% increase in opportunistic thefts from motor vehicles, so he warned everyone to make sure cars were locked, and that valuables were removed. There were particular problems with Land Rover thefts, and the police have cooperated with a company which produces security products  to provide discounted clamps, he will let us have details. Owners of Land Rovers were advised that as this is a national problem, anyone observed driving a Land Rover after 10.00pm may well be stopped by the police to check that the car is theirs.

There had also been an increase in burglaries targeting small, non-alarmed safes in commercial premises ( six recently) where an entrance has been made through rear windows.

Otherwise, Buxton is a reasonably safe place to live, with a 50% decrease in thefts from domestic dwellings, and anti-social behaviour down by 20%.  The police are aware of problems with ‘boy’ (and ‘girl’) racers and will act in persistent cases. They have the authority to take away cars, and charge offenders £150 to retrieve them.
