Anti-social behaviour reported at Norton Lakeside beauty spot

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 19 Oct, 17:02 · Archive

The Mayor of Norton has raised concerns about anti-social behaviour at Lakeside, including attempts to harm a swan.

The Mayor of Norton, Cllr Di Keal, has raised concerns over anti-social behaviour at Lakeside, a beauty spot off Welham Road in the area. She reports that attempts have been made to hurt the swan currently living on the lake, and that an estate agent sign has been thrown into the water.

Cllr Keal said the behaviour is unacceptable and called on people not to let "a small mindless number of people spoil it for our community". She has asked North Yorkshire Council Streetscene to remove the sign as soon as possible.

Attempting to hurt the swan is an illegal act. Cllr Keal urged anyone who witnesses such behaviour to call the police immediately, noting that there is a local wildlife officer who can deal with those responsible. Alternatively, she invited residents to contact her so she can report the matter to the police.
