The 55 Division Community Police Liaison Committee is made up of community volunteers and police service representatives who work together in identifying, prioritizing, and problem-solving local policing issues. The BTRA Executive has actively monitored committee the most recent meeting in mid November:
- Extra officers have been brought on-board for the next several weeks to deal with a sudden increase in break and enter incidents in the area.
- 55 Division is again making available free home security audits. Simply contact Crime Prevention Officer, Constable Robert McDonald at (416) 808-5579 for an appointment and an officer will visit to identify ways you can make your home less susceptible to break and enter.
- Though this division has thankfully not seen an increase in pedestrian fatalities, the numbers are generally up for the rest of the GTA and inappropriate pedestrian behaviour such as jay-walking has been marked as one cause for concern. To this end, warnings and fines will be handed out for such behaviour during a city-wide focus on pedestrian safety over the holidays.
- This year's Christmas RIDE season will be from early December to January 31.
- Potential parking policy changes for the Triangle were broached. (See article elsewhere in this issue). This project is currently a work in progress.
