On November 18th York Region Police (YRP)and King hosted a meeting about community safety.  The meeting was in response to incidents in Nobleton.  But, the information and learnings presented by YRP .  re totally relevant to any community/neighbourhood in King.  If you were not able to attend or watch the live stream a video recording is available.  

One of the big learnings I had, as I watched it, was about the Community Safety Data Portal.  It is an interactive data tool is to improve community awareness of police activity and engage citizens in crime prevention strategies to work in partnership to build safer communities.  YRP encourages the public to visit the Community Safety Data Portal for more information about crimes and their locations using the Community Safety Map. You can also learn more about crime trends affecting your municipality using the Crime Trend Dashboards.  This Portal was discussed and demonstrated during the 11/18 meeting.

I have been told that the latter portion of the meeting, which was questions from the attendees and answers from YRP, is not very good in terms of hearing the questions.  So just listen to the first portion!
