In a district message, the municipality announced that it will carry out additional checks at the park. For example, a temporary camera will be installed opposite the public toilets. In principle, it will remain there for a period of six months. “I have the feeling that the problem here in Lepelenburg Park is now decreasing somewhat,” says a middle-aged man who, together with his wife, walks his regular round of Singel. “But I always see them somewhere, in the part between this park and the Stadsschouwburg. I have the feeling that there have been a few fewer of them lately. Perhaps all those measures together, the ban on hard drugs, the camera and the extra enforcement, still help.”
