Safe Communities Meeting

You are invited to participate in a community conversation hosted by the West Precinct regarding your safety concerns.

EVENT:                Safe Communities Meeting – West Precinct

DATE:                  October 18th from 7 – 9 PM

LOCATION:         Belltown Community Center — 415 Bell Street

 

Per The Mayor’s Website: 

The Mayor’s Office and the Seattle Police Department are working together on the Safe Communities Outreach Mission. Part of the SPD 20/20 Plan, Safe Communities seeks to ensure the City is meeting our goal of reducing crime and creating the safest possible neighborhoods. We will do that by bringing residents and officers together in living rooms, cafes, barber shops and community centers across Seattle to develop a list of priorities to address community concerns.  Those priorities will then guide the actions the City, SPD, and the neighborhoods will take together to protect public safety. We are committed to building safe communities.

 

We’re looking forward to hearing your ideas and developing an action plan with you.
