The Options Document is the first stage in reviewing the Local Plan that was adopted in 2016. Responses to the options and questions will help, alongside ongoing evidence updates and sustainability appraisal, to shape a revised Draft Local Plan.

The Council is also undertaking a ‘call for sites’ for the duration of the consultation period. This is to help identify potential sites that should be considered through the review for inclusion in the updated Local Plan.

A revised Draft Site Assessment Methodology has been published for consultation. This document sets out the process the Council will follow to assess and compare the suitability of potential development sites that are submitted in response to the call for sites.

All consultation responses and site submissions should be received on or before Friday 21 December 2018.

Public Spaces Protection Order Consultation

Residents and businesses are encouraged to take part in a consultation on measures to tackle anti-social behaviour.

In October 2014 the Anti-social Behaviour Crime and Policing Act 2014 was introduced. As part of this legislation comes the introduction of the Public Spaces Protection Order (PSPO). This enables Local Authorities to impose prohibitions or requirements to specified areas to enable law abiding citizens to enjoy public areas without being affected by anti-social behaviour.

The aim of the proposed PSPO is to address a number of specific concerns related to vehicle nuisance and anti – social behaviour and will hopefully deter the behaviour and enable Officers from Humberside Police and all Authorised persons to deal more robustly with offenders at the time of occurrence.

The consultation period will be open for 28 days from the 1^st November 2018 and gives people the chance to have their say. The council plans to introduce the PSPO to cover Cleethorpes seafront and town centre, Grimsby town centre and the following parks of Peoples Park, Haverstoe Park, Sussex Recreation Ground and Cleethorpes Country Park. A Borough wide PSPO is also being proposed to curb dog fouling and control dogs under certain circumstances.

If a PSPO is introduced, it would mean that the following acts would be prohibited;

1. Returning to the Town Centre (or other designated area parks) within 24 hours after being requested to leave by an authorised officer due to them behaving in a manner causing or likely to cause harassment, alarm, distress, nuisance or annoyance;
2. Behaving in a manner that is violent, or threatening, or intimidating, or distressing or annoying;
3. Whilst under the influence of alcohol or any other substance being a threat or a risk to their own personal safety, or the safety of others;
4. Using foul or abusive language (directed at or towards a third person);
5. Playing loud music (likely to cause public annoyance);
6. Creating excessive noise;
7. Climbing onto any structure or building other than for a lawful purpose;
8. Behaving in a manner likely to cause damage or significant risk of damage to property;

Grimsby Town Centre Only

9. Ride a pedal cycle in such a manner to cause annoyance to the foot passengers on Victoria Street from its junction with George Street up to the underpass of Fredrick ward way and taking in The Bull Ring Lane Footpath from Victoria Street to Bethlehem Street;

Cleethorpes only

10. Driving or using a vehicle inconsiderately (which is deemed to be anti-social) ;
11. Sounding a vehicle horn (as to cause public annoyance);
12. Depositing litter from or in the vicinity of a motor vehicle.
