CRIME/SAFETY

By Dennis Donohue

Candidate for Mayor; City of Salinas

This information is provided by the candidate
A Comprehensive Plan For Community Safety
One of the greatest issues affecting our city is community safety. During the campaign, I discussed a comprehensive plan to reduce crime throughout Salinas. It's a plan that brings together the elements that have been shown to work by the most successful police departments in America, including:

  • Giving police the staff and resources they need
  • Putting more officers on the street where they can form closer relationships with the people on their beats
  • Involving community groups, businesses, churches and neighborhoods -- to prevent crime before it happens. As with most hard problems, crime won't be solved by simplistic solutions or empty slogans. It will be solved by putting together the kind of multi-dimensional plan that's been proven to work in other cities. We know how to do it. If we share the vision, we will do it.
