A new public spaces protection order in Preston will seek to address crime and anti-social behaviour in the city centre.
Freddie Bailey, cabinet member for environment and community safety at Preston City Council, said: “As we approach the festive season, it’s vital that people in the city centre feel safe to enjoy themselves. By collaborating with Preston Police, the Council will be able to reduce anti-social behaviour and enhance public safety.
“When the order commences, the Police and Council officers will work jointly to give official warnings for breaches of the order and to report serious or repeat violations for enforcement, including £100 fixed penalty fines. Under Sections 59 of the Anti-social Behaviour Crime and Policing Act 2014, the PSPO will enforce the following:
No persons shall occupy a tent or other temporary structure within the Prohibition Area in a manner likely to create a health and safety risk for other people.
