Anti-Social Behaviour

Anti social behaviour is acting in a manner that caused, or is likely to cause harassment, alarm or distress to one or more person not of the same household.

Anti social behaviour can take many forms and can be of a criminal and serious nature including racial and other harassment, physical violence and drug dealing. It can also include loud music (often late at night), barking dogs, verbal abuse and vandalism, which while not criminal in nature can still be equally detrimental to a Residents quality of life.

The tenancy agreement clearly places responsibility on each tenant for the behaviour of each person living in or visiting their home. This includes behaviour within the tenants home, and within the locality and states that persons should not cause a nuisance or annoyance, racial or other harassment or noise nuisance.

The Association expects Residents to show consideration towards people living in their locality details of problems which may occur and how they can be dealt with can be found in section 6 of the Residents handbook.
