Councillors in Gobowen demanded action after reports of drug dealing and other anti-social behaviour in the St Martins Road playing field and its car park.
The calls were made at a meeting of Selattyn and Gobowen Parish Council last night after a member of the public and councillors themselves both reported they had witnessed drug dealing and drug use.
The meeting was told when reports had been made previously, a police car took up to 30 minutes to arrive.
