The email below was sent out by Watson's Property Manager for Leetham House on the 11th November 2026:
"I am writing to inform you that we have received a number of reports concerning the smell of cannabis within Leetham House.
Over recent months, I have issued several general communications reminding residents of their obligations not to cause nuisance or annoyance to their neighbours. Unfortunately, the reports have continued, and as the source of the issue has not yet been identified, I am now asking residents to assist me by keeping detailed records of any future incidents.
If you experience cannabis smoke within your property or in the communal areas, please record:
I encourage you to report incidents directly to the City of York Council as anti-social behaviour. Reports can be submitted online via the council's reporting page: https://www.york.gov.uk/ASB. Reporting incidents directly helps the council build intelligence, identify patterns of behaviour and, where appropriate, consider enforcement action.
Please note that the more reports and information received, the greater the opportunity for the relevant authorities to identify the source of the issue and take appropriate action. Individual incidents can be difficult to investigate, but consistent reports from multiple residents can help establish patterns and provide the evidence required to support enforcement action.
I appreciate the cooperation of all residents in helping to maintain a safe and pleasant living environment for everyone within the development.
Should you have any information that may assist, please contact Watson."
