Bognor Regis resident found guilty over excessive noise disturbance
On Monday 6 October, a resident in Ockley Road, Bognor Regis was successfully prosecuted after neighbours suffered months of excessive noise disturbance. Complaints began in September 2024, and a Community Protection Notice was quickly served.
The Notice was breached no less than 15 times, and the council were granted a forfeiture order to remove a large speaker, an amp and two TVs from the prosecuted resident.
The case, which was heard in the defendant's absence, found the resident guilty, and she will have to pay a £300 fine, £120 victim surcharge and £792 costs, making a total of £1212.
