[Sng-discuss] Responding to crime

[sng-discuss@communityforum.net]

Thanks for addressing this problem and looking  for solutions.  I have
addressed many problems in the Seward neighborhood and while many have
listened  (mostly  housing issues), not many persons have offered
solutions -- other than for me to write the attorney general or some other
government agency.  In this day and age where many people are being forced
to take early retirements or are retired, I wouldn't think we'd have any
problem finding volunteers.

 I know older folks don't like to do tasks where they feel they are putting
their safety at risk, but I know fraternity houses are required to do
service in the community (because my brother did that when he was in
college).   I don't see why Seward cannot solicit their help too.

Neighborhood churches may also be able to provide help or at least make
their parishioners aware that we do have some problems.  You wouldn't
believe how gullible members of a neighborhood church were when they went
door to door evangelizing every Tuesday at the Riverside Plaza Apartments a
couple years ago.  Police got called on them!

Thanks for listening.  I used the web page and listed  some scary incidents
I experienced in the past 5 months since one of my friends moved into the
Seward Square Apartments.
