    cpforum_logo.jpg Balbriggan Community Policing Forum will be holding its second public meeting for 2011 in the Hamilton Hall , Town Hall , Balbriggan on Wednesday 15th June at 7.30pm.

    Residents of Balbriggan and Balrothery will have an opportunity to come along and bring their issues of crime, disorder and anti social behaviour to the appropriate authorities. Public meetings are attended by An Garda Siochana, and the Fingal County Council and chaired by the Balbriggan Community Policing Forum.

    Free parking is available under the hotel/town hall and your ticket will be validated at the desk in the town hall after the meeting. Turn out for the last public meeting was approx 40 persons and many people spoke out and contributed. Action will be taken on the issues that are brought up at the meetings and feedback will be given by An Garda Siochana and the Fingal County Council at the follow on meeting. Issues that have been presented by the public include such things as anti social behaviour with younger members of the community, parking, speeding, signage problems, drug dealing on estates, drug taking, vandalism to name but a few.
    The Balbriggan Community Policing Forum is an independent body who aims to build community capacity, develop links and further enhance communication between the residents of Balbriggan, state agencies, local authority and An Garda Siochana. One of the most important elements of our work is the facilitation of public meetings.

    Why Should I attend?
    The success of these meetings will depend on your involvement. Anti- social behaviour is something that affects us all. Each contribution is important and all views will be welcome.

    The Balbriggan Community Policing Forums main achievement to date is the setting up of this public meeting system which allows the public to have open dialogue with the Garda and the County Council in a local venue. Also many new residents groups have been set up with the aid of the Balbriggan Community Policing Forum. We actively encourage the development of residents groups or associations. If we have not met with your group or if you have any issue we can help you with please contact your local development worker Louise Butler on 086 7716811 Or email balbriggan@cpforum.ie
