restrain (n): a measure to keep something under control. So, confine is the apt word here as it means to control within limits.
imprison: keep in prison
frustrate: has a meaning of prevent from progressing but not suitable here as it is taking about residents and not a mob
disdain: consider to be unworthy of one's consideration. Not suitable here.
