What will community policing officers do?
Community Policing is both an organizational strategy and philosophy that promotes police and community partnerships to improve safety and reduce crime. Measure Y will add 43 community policing officers to the 14 already serving. This will provide each community policing beat within the City with a dedicated community policing officer. These officers will engage in proactive problem solving in collaboration with community-based organizations to address high priority crime problems, reduce the fear of crime, and work to improve the overall quality of life in our neighborhoods.
