Noise Abatement Notice
On 1 May 2013 the Noise & Nuisance Team received information regarding a potential rave
which would allegedly be held on the night of the 4 May 2013.
In response officers visited the site on 1 May 2013, and established that the 'old sausage
factory' in Bianca Road was being squatted. Officers spoke to the squatters who were
residing there, and whilst they did not substantiate the claim, they did not deny it either.
Officers felt that should the rave go ahead it would likely cause a nuisance to nearby
residents.
In a proactive attempt to address this, on 3 May 2013 Officers served a section 80
abatement Notice for 'likelihood of nuisance' which effectively prohibited the nuisance from
occurring or recurring. Whilst the Notice prohibited the occurrence or recurrence of nuisance
from the rave, it could not prevent the rave from taking place.
In addition to the above, Council Licensing officers also visited the site with Police and a
warning letter was issued regarding unlicensed entertainment.
Actions on the 45 May 2013
The Noise Team made several visits at the following times:
