🚨 ELMDON PARK: PLEASE REPORT EVERY INCIDENT

If we want action on crime and antisocial behaviour in Elmdon Park, we need to make sure it’s reported.

This morning I met Sgt Thomas Willetts at Solihull Police Station to raise residents’ concerns about riders causing problems in the park and reports of bike thefts. He had no record of some of the thefts residents have mentioned, which shows why reporting matters.

Police resources are stretched, and reports help identify hotspots and direct officers, including specialist units tackling off-road bikes.

We also discussed police working with the council on possible deterrents, including CCTV and targeted lighting around car parks, children’s play areas and secluded paths.

There was encouraging news too: Sgt Willetts said burglary figures are trending down across the borough, with Elmdon’s levels remaining comparatively low.

Please report crimes and antisocial behaviour:

📞 999: emergencies, including a crime happening now or someone in immediate danger.
📞 101: non-emergency incidents, including crimes discovered afterwards.
💻 Online: West Midlands Police reporting page

Every report helps build the picture police need to target action where it matters.

ELMDON HOUSE PLANNING APPLICATION

An application has been submitted to convert Elmdon House into a 24-hour care home for up to four adults.

I have been contacted by residents with a range of views and would like to understand what the wider community thinks. I have therefore created a short survey for those who support, oppose or remain undecided about the proposal. I will collate the responses and use them to inform my representations to the council.

Please share your views here:

Statement from Cllr Rob Johnson

Residents in Elmdon will have seen the news that my ward colleague, Eleonora, has left the Reform UK Group on Solihull Council. That's a decision for her to make, and I wish her well.

What I want Elmdon residents to know is that nothing changes for them. I'm still here, still meeting residents, and still working every day on the issues that matter to this ward, whether that's housing, fly-tipping, or standing up for local people on the council.

Elmdon gave Reform UK a clear mandate back in May, and I'm proud to keep delivering on that as part of a Group that's getting things done for residents across Solihull.

My door remains open to anyone in the ward who needs help or wants to raise something with me.

ACTION SECURED AT TANHOUSE FARM ROAD CAR PARK

Following complaints from nearby residents about late-night access, noise and nuisance, I raised the issue directly with the Council and pushed for stronger action.

I’m pleased to confirm that the Council is now preparing to introduce a new locking procedure.

The gates will be locked at the advertised closing time, even if vehicles remain inside.

Any vehicle left behind will be locked in until the car park reopens by 8.00am the following morning.

Large permanent warning signs will be installed before the new procedure begins.

This is a practical change that I have pushed for on behalf of residents, and I’m pleased to have got it done. I’ll share the start date as soon as it is confirmed.

The Council is also investigating the vehicle that has been left in the car park for several weeks.

Great to be out in Lyndon today listening to residents’ concerns, especially speeding on Castle Lane, the new food waste bins, and the move to fortnightly waste collections.

We’re here and we’re listening.
