We have increased our presence in the area of North Main Street and will continue to do so for the foreseeable future. Our goals: Visibility to prevent and reduce crime, such as shoplifting and theft at our stores (Wal-Mart, Home Depot, etc). Deter those who wish to come to this transient area to commit crimes. We are watching and being pro-active, including live monitoring of the Motel 6 cameras. Quick response to calls for service in the area during peak times. Enforce traffic violations. Pedestrian safety. (We have witnessed pedestrians placing themselves in danger by not using side walks, or cross walks, and waiting for proper signaling) Engage with our businesses. Very productive meetings with Motel 6 and Wal-Mart about implementing crime reduction strategies, and technology. Engage with the homeless population and continue to offer services through our Behavioral Health Unit. (Unfortunately, most decline services, but we will continue to monitor this). Pro-active policing + Community Engagement = Safer Community.
