Council officers will examine how community wardens' powers can be strengthened in the fight against antisocial behaviour in Renfrewshire.
It follows the passing of a motion put forward by Andy Doig, an independent candidate in Johnstone North and the surrounding villages, urging the local authority to build on a recent strategy published on the topic by considering a further review.
Doig spoke of "harrowing stories" of bullying and harassment that have blighted communities and emphasised that society must "get a better handle" on this issue.
