Nuisances

We have powers to deal with a wide range of issues including:

• Noise
• Accumulations of waste material
• Animals causing nuisance
• Smoke from bonfires and barbeques
• Dust and smells from trade premises including dust from construction sites
• Artificial lighting

However, there are many situations where we cannot act because we do not have the appropriate legal powers, and these include such things as overhanging branches, broken fences, and domestic smells.
