I am very disappointed in the attack that Coun Lister made on the Home Zone scheme for the Broad Street area (Councillor hits at Home Zones, July 16).

As a ward councillor I know of the unique problems this area experiences and I am looking forward to a positive result from the study into introducing a Home Zone into the Broad Street area.

The idea behind Home Zones is to promote a better community and help stamp out antisocial behaviour, such as prostitution and drug taking. This scheme would improve the lives of the local residents immensely as they have suffered from these antisocial behaviours for many years.
