Smell of marijuana, 15th July

51.02877 -4.212108

Residents in no. 2 and 3A St Helens are regularly smoking marijuana which is infecting neighbouring properties. The smell is so strong that sitting in the garden is unappealing and it infects other homes if windows are opened. This has been reported previously and the issue did improve but of late drug usage has increased.
