What constitutes a “sufficient magnitude” in determining the appropriate size and density of a potential Weed and Seed Community site, and why is it important?
If there is a disproportional amount of serious and violent crime and other social problems in the target area compared to the community as a whole, then there would be “sufficient magnitude” to warrant the larger jurisdiction’s concern and a corresponding response, including an array of additional resources. For example, if a community had a population of approximately 200,000 and the WSC had a population of approximately 20 50,000, that site would represent about 10 to 25 percent of the community, or “sufficient magnitude” to warrant a Weed and Seed type of intervention.
