Please join the Duluth Police Department, One Roof Community Housing, LISC Duluth and Lincoln Park citizens by participating in the Lincoln Park Community Safety Initiative. The Lincoln Park Community Safety Initiative is comprised of a dedicated group of multi-disciplinary individuals focused on strategic collaboration to build a sustainable, safe Lincoln Park.
 
Duluth Police Lieutenant Leigh Wright will host the first comm-U-nity COMPSTAT (Computer Statistics) on Wednesday, September 11, 2013 at 5:30pm at Clyde Iron, dedicated towards blending Lincoln Park Community resources. The Duluth Police Department has hosted weekly department COMPSTAT meetings with our law enforcement partners since January 2010 and uses it to track crime trends and patterns to create strategic policing plans, allocate our resources and measure outcomes. 
 
For this new neighborhood specific community approach, Lieutenant Wright and her officers will provide a detailed briefing on the Seaway Hotel and other notable Lincoln Park Problem locations. Representatives from One Roof, City Center and from HRA will briefly speak about housing issues and an update on the Seaway from a housing perspective. Community members will give feedback and direction on how to move forward with identified problems.
 
If you are a Lincoln Park resident, business owner or make decisions that affect this neighborhood, please join this coalition in its effort to reduce the long-term effects of crime and maintain safe neighborhoods and schools as well as ensuring a high quality of life for all Lincoln Park residents. Be a part of the solution, attend this meeting; it just may change a life.
