Surrey Police Consultation Data

Focus on gang violence. Surrey has had a horrible reputation for decades. Its time to change that.

Focus on mental illness

Focus on teaching youth

Focus on youth engagement and getting to root of gang/gun violence by starting with highschools and school staff. Programs at that level for all youths (not just the ones with problem behaviour) and education for their parents and resources to divert

For everything like kids safety going out at night Forget the idea!!! Waste of funds. Just add additional RCMP to already existing force. Forget this ego driven exercise and fund the existing RCMP properly. Hold a referendum on this hate brained... if you dare!! Fraser Heights is safer than most neighbourhoods. Police presence is a deterrent to opportunistic crimes, but the greater need is investigation/capturing/out-smarting of more insidious criminals like child porn producers, terrorism, cyber crimes. From the statement it sounds like a done deal. I hope not. I think that before a decision is made the Council needs to present the facts (complete cost as determined by an objective body) The mayor is no in charge like a dictator.

Full complement of officers in relation to population That the cost of changing to city force is realistic in cost

Fully analyzing and then sharing what the full costs are - especially the upfront costs and the impact on property taxes and City debt load. The decide if it is worth it and will make a difference.

Funding and money to establish our own police force.

Funding, staffing, seamless transition and respectfully seeking knowledge and experience of current RCMP staff , respect for all citizens (across political affiliations), full engagement of citizens with timely information.
