There's far too much break-ins and theft also cable theft happening in these cal-de-sacs namely Reindeer Close, 4th Ave and Gazelle Close. I suggest that these three roads be fenced off from the canal. Just over a week ago thugs climbed onto our yard roof and stole our solar light and panel. They gain access from a vacant plot behind my house which is in 4th Ave next to the canal. This is unacceptable and something need to be done about it.

I believe the road must be closed off. It was never meant to be a thoroughfare. The easy access has now become an escape route for criminals.

I would feel much safer if they close the end of the road

As one of the homes on the corner of the Cul de sac, we have regular activity with strange faces and nameless people shouting at the gate for work, food or anything else they can get their hands on. We have an open property behind us an there is regular activity there as well as we see it on our backyard camera. It is scary how many peeps walk these streets and the faces not known to the area. Please help us

It would be so much safer with the access from the Kanal and into Reindeer Close completely closed off.

I support this initiative due to the high crime rate in the area

As a student having to wait for my loft at 6am in the morning, especially in winter, i am afraid as you don't know who is outside the gate and it is super dark

The closure would be a huge deterrent to the criminals who frequent our area. My own laptop was stolen from my dining table, my sons car was broken into, our garage door was forced open. This is just to mention a few of the incidents that we have to contend with. We have to incur huge costs to keep our homes, properties and possessions safe. It involves putting up cameras, alarm systems, electric fencing, barbed wire and high walls.

Whenever there has been a break in, they run for that gap and canal first. It's a quick and easy escape route. Residents are fearful to run after the criminal element without being able to see what's around the corner waiting for them. Close the gap and it will certainly look less attractive to the criminals.

Fencing off the cul-de-sac will eliminate the easy escape for criminals who have been taking advantage all these years. It's getting worse with more break ins in recent years.

Gun pointed and house broken into many times, high risk escape exit causes easy exit access. Fence up!

We’re so desperate for more safety. Our road doesn’t have many young men protecting us as we used to in the good old days and that’s such a concern for all of us especially with multiple break ins, car break ins etc. this is our home but we feel so unsafe

At home during the day, alot of foot traffic in the road, unknown faces, lots of people begging or shouting at gate for food but never seen them in the area before, scared to leave property.

I have been living here for more than 30 years and it would benefit our community to have our road fenced in order to keep out the crime element that has been escalating over the years

I live at 14 Reindeer Close and I’m fully on board with this plan. I’ve been feeling pretty uneasy when parking my car at night due to the recent break ins. There was an attempted hijacking on the street earlier this year, so I’m always a bit on edge. Just wanted to share how I’m feeling about it. Thanks, I hope this goes well.
