Speaking after the meeting, Nirwal told the Local Democracy Reporting Service (LDRS) he believed Driscoll’s response was “waffle”.
He said: “There are people, they will sit on our road and they will openly smoke a crack pipe or they’ll openly build their drugs, you know, make them, prepare them, get them ready, all that paraphernalia and it’s just, it’s annoying.
“My mum sort of is hesitant now to go for a walk in the morning because she says they’re all in the park and you know they’re all very, very, rough looking, very, very intimidating,” he added.
Nirwal says he believes local drug dealers had spotted the facility and were using it as a “base” to find customers among the centre’s users.
