Consultation information

Surrey Heath Borough Council has approved a new Enforcement and Community Safety Policy, reinforcing its commitment to help retain a clean and safe environment for those who visit, live and work in Surrey Heath. The council wants local people to share their feedback on the policy so that can be considered before it is adopted. 

An overall council-wide Enforcement Policy was adopted by the Executive in 2024. The new Enforcement and Community Safety Policy sits alongside this and is focused on the operations of the Corporate Enforcement team. The team has a broad remit which includes abandoned vehicles, planning enforcement, community safety including anti-social behaviour and dog control, fly tipping and littering, graffiti and fly posting, and unauthorised encampments. 

The new Enforcement and Community Safety Policy sets out the processes and service standards the council aims to achieve when responding to service requests and reports and conducting investigations. It also signposts people to services provided by partners and other agencies to help with contacting the right agency to resolve an issue.
