Policing and the Downtown |
On May 2nd, in partnership with the Charlottetown Police Department, we hosted a very successful presentation/Q&A session with Chief Bard MacConnell and 6 of his officers from various departments.
The room was at capacity. All who attended would agree their time was well spent, their questions were answered, and they left better informed. We are lucky to have a very engaged police department, with great leadership, who really understand and appreciate the importance of the downtown and the challenges we face.
Opportunity for DCI Members:
-
One on One Meeting with Sergeant Melissa Craswell, Community Policing. During this time, she, or a member of her team, would explain things such as bylaws, best practice, panhandling, trespass notices, or other such things affecting your area/business.
-
Walk the Beat with the Chief: Spend an hour walking the downtown with Chief MacConnell, discuss issues on the street seen from street level, through the eyes and ears of the business/property Owner/manager.
to be added to the list for scheduled bookings.
