Community Consultation Feedback
Since the introduction of our new website, I have received considerable feedback from residents concerning policing issues within their communities. Areas for the OPP to concentrate on have included:
* speeding in Tecumseh Road - Arlington area
* concerns about teenage vandalism
* suggestion to concentrate on crime rather than bylaw enforcement
* speeding in Kingsville area; particularly Heritage Road, Arner Townline
* increased patrols of public parks
This is just a snapshot of some of the suggestions I have received concerning issues facing the residents of Tecumseh, Lakeshore, Kingsville and Pelee Island.
You can be assured that I am taking your suggestions seriously and am firmly committed to addressing the concerns that residents feel are important.
I also want to encourage you to take the time to submit your suggestions or concerns via our website under the "Your Feedback" tab.
We are your “local” police and need your involvement to help maintain and promote safety within our communities.
