If you see damage, including graffiti, in the Gardens report it to the Council by 'phoning the Anti-Social Behaviour Hot-Line 384444. Please do not assume that someone else has already reported it. If you walk regularly in the Gardens, and see damage or graffiti that you have not seen before, please report it!
Crime recording statistics are used when the authorities decide where to focus their resources. The police say that reports of anti-social behaviour in South Cliff Gardens are at a lower level than in other parts of Scarborough.
Restoration
of Shelter 3 in South Cliff Gardens: 2012 is the 150th anniversary of shelter 3 in South Cliff
Gardens. We believe this
is an important part of our heritage and thought to be the work of Sir Joseph
Paxton (1803-1865) and it would be wonderful if it could be restored to its
former glory.
In
1969 it was converted into an electricity sub-station. NEDL has previously had
two sub-stations in South
Cliff Gardens
but the one which was in shelter 3 has been relocated into the Spa buildings.
We could now restore the shelter but we need funding to ensure the work is done
on a timely basis. The Civic Society has made a bid to “Voice Your Choice” for
some of the funds required. Put simply Voice Your Choice is about giving
ordinary residents the chance to decide for themselves which community projects
get funded and which ones do not.
Decisions
will be made at an event on Wednesday 20 June 2012 5 to 8pm at the Central
Library
where local residents can vote for the projects they would most like to see
funded. People who vote must be residents of any of the following Wards:
Castle, Central, Ramshill, Falsgrave Park, Woodlands, North Bay, Northstead, Weaponness and
Stepney. If you live in any of
these areas do please make a note of the date and come along and vote for our
project.
