Galway Bay fm newsroom – A new strategy aimed at tackling anti-social behaviour across the county will be presented to councillors at a special meeting on Monday.

The draft document has been drawn up in a bid to deal with anti-social behaviour in local authority houses, and at council-owned sites across Galway.
The strategy contains a series of recommendations to deal with problems including drugs, violence and damage to property.

Sanctions for engaging in these activities will include mediation, breach of tenancy letters, and referral to an in-house case conference – which in serious cases could lead to eviction.

The draft strategy will be presented to county councillors at a special meeting at County Hall on Monday for consideration.
