Reigate & Banstead Joint Enforcement Team
Reigate & Banstead's Joint Enforcement Team (JET) work in partnership with Police Officers from the Reigate & Banstead Neighbourhood Team to provide a quicker, more robust response to environmental crime, making our area an even better place to live, work and visit.
Together, we use our shared legal powers and different approaches to enforcement to more effectively deal with problems and improve the public's sense of safety.
We work closely with Parking Services, Environmental Protection, the Dog Warden, and the Anti-Social Behaviour Team to ensure any issue gets resolved as efficiently as possible by the most relevant department.
