Issues raised during the Area Forum To take forward any issues raised during the Area Forum. Minutes: The Committee agreed that the updates provided during the Forum by the Metropolitan Police on future plans for policing at a borough level as well as updates from the Safer Neighbourhood Teams in the area had been informative. In particular, domestic violence had been identified as a key issue and priority going forward for the borough set against a pattern of an increase in reported incidents. As such, it was agreed that a report on the Council’s approach to try and address this issue be added to the agenda of the next meeting.
The Committee noted the issue raised during the Forum relating to the provision of safe pedestrian crossing facilities during the duration of the repair works Thames Water were undertaking on Bounds Green Road at the junction with Braemar Avenue. The Head of Neighbourhood Services agreed to look into this.
