Proposed Plan
§ Over the course of 2020, Council has had a renewed and specific focus on building community trust and advancing safe communities.
§ Each of the Council Committees have been working over the last several months on specific policy issues designed to provide a holistic approach to advancing safe communities and violence prevention.
§ The Committees reviewed issues; solicited feedback from the community; and discussed proposed enhancements, policy changes, and service revision options.
§ Each Committee discussed recommendations with full Council at the October 5, 2020 City Council Expanded Strategy Session.
§ Based on the discussions at the Expanded Strategy Session and the October 12 Council Business Meeting, the attached SAFE Charlotte Plan includes specific initiatives planned as a framework for advancing Safety and Accountability for Everyone in Charlotte.
§ Community input was a foundational factor in the development of the plan, and continued feedback and collaboration with the community will be essential in moving the plan forward.
