The Kent Police Department invites the public to a community awareness meeting at 7 p.m. Nov. 14 at Kent Elementary School, 24700 64th Ave S.
The meeting will provide residents with more information on how to make their neighborhoods safer. It also will bring police leadership and community members together to address community crime concerns and introduce police resources that can help residents make their neighborhoods safer and more secure.
Kent Police Chief Ken Thomas and agency administrators will answer questions about department operations and community safety concerns. Members of the department’s Neighborhood Response Team and Community Education unit also will be hand to answer questions and take input regarding specific issues or concerns within the community.
The Kent Police Bike Unit will make a special presentation.
A cornerstone of the Kent Police strategy for creating safe communities lays in Intelligence Led Policing. This practice uses real-time crime intelligence, sharing information with our partners, pro-active problem solving and community partnerships to address the issues of crime while improving the quality of life.
