Seattle University is administering the citywide Seattle Public Safety Survey. The purpose of the survey is to solicit feedback on public safety and security concerns from those who live and/or work in Seattle. Each neighborhood, including Phinney Ridge and Greenwood, has its own Micro Community Policing Plan which can be viewed at:
The survey will be a mixed method evaluation where both quantitative and
qualitative data collection approaches will be used. The plans will be
evaluated on their impact on the nature and extent of crime, resident
perceptions of crime, police-community interactions, and the overall
implementation of the Micro Community Policing Initiative.
The survey is accessible at publicsafetysurvey.com thru November 30th. A
report on the survey results will be provided to the Seattle Police
Department to assist them with making our neighborhood safer and more
secure.
WHAT ARE THE MICRO COMMUNITY POLICING PLANS?In
Seattle, no two neighborhoods are alike, nor are their safety
priorities and concerns about crime. Recognizing this, the Micro
Community Policing Plans are designed to put the department’s energy and
resources into addressing the crimes that most concern each community
in Seattle.
Micro Community Policing Plans (MCPP) take a unique three-pronged approach to fighting crime in Seattle’s neighborhoods. - Maintaining accurate and timely data that is relentlessly followed-up on.
- Working directly with the community to ensure that we are meeting their priorities.
- Partnering with Seattle University to conduct independent review to refine our approach.
The
MCPP’s are living documents and use crime data as performance measures.
As trends and patterns are identified, the relationships established to
design the policing plans are reengaged to continually refine the
approach. In this way, collaboration between the community and their
police department fosters trust and an ongoing partnership to manage
crime and quality of life issues, together.;)
