TRIMDON PUBWATCH The above scheme which is driven by local licensees, Sedgefield Borough Licensing Authority and the police continues to be a success. At present we have four people who are barred from all licensed premises in the Trimdons. Monthly meetings are held and anyone who comes t o the attention of the panel faces a lengthy ban, over the Christmas and New Year period no incidents of note were reported.
CHURCH ROAD PARKING When parking areas in Church Rd Trimdon Village are full people are still double parking and leaving they vehicles on the roadside parking and causing an obstruction. If anyone is seen by police parking in this manner a fixed penalty ticket will be issued incurring a £30 fine.
