Kevin wrote to the Montrose Review in response to news that a local action group was formed by parents and neighbours around Garrison Road Park to improve the area. Kevin previously wrote to the Montrose Review and Police after discarded needles were found in the park.
Dear Editor,
I am writing to congratulate the local parents and their good neighbours who have taken the initiative of getting together to deal with the need to deal with drug dealers and clean up the area around Garrison Road and Annat Road in Montrose. Could I also pass on my thanks to Inspector Gordon Cryle for the way he is responding to my request for action as reported in your letters page, but more importantly the call for action by the local community.
By such working together crime can be defeated in our community.
I wish the action group and Tayside Police every success in dealing with the scourge of drugs on our streets.
Kevin Hutchens,
Scottish Labour Party Scottish Parliament Candidate for Angus North and the Mearns, Stonehaven
