SUMMARY:
One of the primary obstacles to urban revitalization is the perception of a lack of safety. This perception is typically related to criminal activity, may be real or perceived, and may involve both personal safety, as well as, the safety of property. Community policing innovations are one approach that can be initiated to target criminal activity within a community redevelopment area.
Revitalization has drawn significant numbers of people and activities to areas long underutilized. However, the Urban Core Community Redevelopment Area still experiences safety concerns of varying degrees. To address these concerns, the CRA and City of Pensacola annually enter into an Interlocal Agreement to provide community policing activities within the entirety of the Urban Core Community Redevelopment Area from 17th Avenue to A Street.
