This month has seen a reduction of offending in some areas but we had a spike in Aotea because of some offenders targeting vehicles on one particular night. So apart from the one night, things are looking good and we hope the trend continues. Over the last couple of week I have had some good inquires about Neighbourhood Support and general crime prevention advice. This has been pleasing because it shows that our community is aware of crime precautions and are looking after one another. On the 1st of March I spent a few hours at the Aotea community day; a few people came and chatted but not as many as I would have hoped. Well I will keep it short this month so everyone has a good month and you will hear from me next month.
