Noisy Neighbours

Recent issues with noisy neighbours in the borough have prompted action from both the police and Labour Councillors.

Cllr Paul Cox, Cabinet Member for environment issues, said; "We take the issue of noise nuisance very seriously and will use all the powers available to us to tackle it, even seizing equipment where people ignore requests to keep the noise to acceptable levels. In this case Enforcement officers had served an Abatement Notice on Blaize Young which was subsequently breached.  Therefore they applied for a Warrant to Enter and seize equipment, which was granted by Blackburn Magistrates on Friday 18th July. Enforcement officers acted on the same day, entering and seizing equipment, in the in presence of police officers."
