Boosting community safety
Hermann has zero-tolerance for anti-social behaviour. He has led campaigns to rid local parks of drugs, call for punitive penalties for vandals, and to stop violence on public transport.
His priorities include:
More CCTV in more places
Install more CCTV cameras in local parks and around public transport hubs.
Renovate parks to deter anti-social behaviour
Renovate more local parks to deter drug use and anti- social behaviour.
Boost funding for Neighbourhood Watch
Support community crime fighting that protects the reputation of our area.
