Minutes:

Members received a report which presented a proposed new model for Safer Neighbourhoods, recently approved by the Safer York Partnership (SYP).

 

The document approved by SYP, attached as Annex 1 to the report, detailed the consultation and problem solving methods which would be used to deliver the new model.  This would include the use of ward committee meetings to identify policing priorities, and ward team meetings to oversee performance against these priorities. 

 

Members commented on the need for clarity in disseminating information about the new model, to ensure that it was interpreted consistently across the wards, whilst still allowing for flexibility in dealing with specific ward issues.  In response to concerns raised about the setting of police priorities, it was stressed that ward committees would not be the only forum for consultation and that proposed priorities would be checked against SYP data to ensure they were appropriate, and feedback provided to communities.
