for the Town Centre.
Decision:
*RESOLVED –
1. That the responses received from the consultation on the Public Spaces Protection Order Chesterfield (No1) (relating to restricting alcohol consumption), Public Spaces Protection Order Chesterfield (No2) (relating to other anti-social behaviour controls) and related issues, be acknowledged and noted.
2. That the Public Spaces Protection Order Chesterfield (No1) (relating to restricting alcohol consumption) and the Public Spaces Protection Order Chesterfield (No2) (relating to other anti-social behaviour controls) be continued with effect from 15 December, 2020 for a period of three years.
REASONS FOR DECISIONS
1. The current Public Spaces Protection Orders (PSPOs) were considered and approved by Cabinet on 10 October, 2017, following a Cabinet report regarding the potential for the PSPO being considered on 25 July, 2017. This report outlined the legislative background and evidence that supported the restrictions and the scope of two PSPOs to restrict alcohol consumption and other anti-social behaviour (ASB) in Chesterfield town centre.
2. The current PSPOs came into effect from the 15 December, 2017. The PSPO can only be in place for a maximum of three years before it is required to be renewed, consequently this report seeks approval to renew the existing orders. There is no limit on the number of times that Orders can be renewed if the need is still present.
