Descrição
There is ongoing drug dealing going on on Beecher Street. The police are very aware of it as there have been multiple arrests at this home. If you live nearby it is time to rid ourselves of this illegal activity. Our neighborhood is too nice to let this keep going. There are children living in the same house. I have walked by on occasion and almost got high on the sidewalk. I have been taking pics and letting the buyers know that I am well aware of their presence. I can't do this alone. The impact on the neighborhood is terrible. Please help me help the police end this. Sgt. Anastasio has asked anyone suspecting a drug deal call him with make, color and plate if he is on duty. In addition the NHPD has asked for all of us to pitch in and call the non-emergency number until we can make them go away. Thanks for your help in advance.

Here is the nuisance abatement law. Looks like it's doable from an official response. The Nuisance Abatement and Quality of Life Act (Connecticut General Statutes Section 19a-343, et. seq.) authorizes state prosecutors to bring civil nuisance actions against persons and property that are involved in certain types of illegal activity.
Unlike ordinary criminal prosecutions, nuisance abatement actions focus on cleaning up properties that are magnets for illegal activity, in addition to punishing wrongdoers.
The Nuisance Abatement and Quality of Life Act requires a minimum of three arrests or the issuance of three arrest warrants indicating a pattern of criminal activity on the property during a one-year period before a nuisance abatement action is brought.
Not every criminal arrest or arrest warrant makes a property eligible for nuisance abatement action. The law specifies ten areas from which arrests must be made to precipitate a nuisance abatement action:
Drug trafficking
Illegal gambling
Prostitution
Obscenity involving minors
Illegal liquor sales
Motor vehicle "chop shops"
Inciting injury to persons or property
Murder
Sexual assault
Felonious assault
Public nuisance actions are filed in the Superior Court for the Judicial District where the property is located. The prosecutor will seek court orders or negotiate a stipulated agreement for whatever relief is necessary to stop the criminal activity underlying the nuisance. Many remedies may be possible, ranging from screening prospective tenants for a property to closing the premises.
Multi-Agency Response to Community Hotspots
The Multi-Agency Response to Community Hotspots, or M.A.R.C.H. Program is designed to attack chronic nuisances created by both commercial and residential properties.
Residents alert their Community Policing Officers to nuisance properties, including illegal social clubs, bars and stores that are magnets for criminal activity or problem houses or apartment buildings. The police department then prepares a list of nuisance properties based on a history of complaints and criminal incidents.
The Nuisance Abatement prosecutors assemble a team of municipal and state inspectors and arrange for administrative inspections of the nuisance properties. The team will visit each location and each individual agency will conduct an inspection.
Inspectors may cite landlords for violations and arrests may be made. If conditions on a property pose an immediate danger to the health or safety of the tenants or surrounding neighbors, an administrative agency can ordered the building closed.
In addition to coordinating prosecutions with the Nuisance Abatement Unit, the M.A.R.C.H. team can also coordinate follow-up action with the local Housing Court prosecutor.

I say make the arrests and neighbors should be bombarding the police with complaint calls. And every time you call the police, be sure to call DeCola, Rosa D., Liveable Cities. Squeaky wheels...
