I-5 Corridor Safety Summit Statement of Support
November 8, 2011
By signing this Statement of Support, stakeholders representing cities and public
safety agencies along and surrounding the 1-5 Corridor— the undersigned —
commit to undertaking an unprecedented collaboration to better advance our
missions and serve the communities we represent. This collaboration will focus
on increasing communication and information-sharing between public agencies
in an effort to establish and implement more strategic public safety policies and
practices.
GOALS OF COLLABORATION
1. Establish infrastructure for sharing information between cities and public
safety agencies in a timely and strategic manner.
2. Identify ways to ensure ongoing collaboration between cities and public
safety agencies.
3. Share in the development of techniques and strategies in order to identify
best practices for the prevention and combating of crime.
4. Establish innovative cross-jurisdictional partnerships that leverage
resources and qualify for grant and alternative funding opportunities.
AREAS OF MUTUAL BENEFIT
Recognizing our regional and institutional differences, the undersigned will strive
to facilitate greater and more efficient communication and information-sharing.
As a united group we can:
• Gather information to inform policy makers, law enforcement leadership,
and community stakeholders in their decision making processes.
Explore ways to "filter" available data and develop strategies to identify
noticeable trends in said data.
• Share information that will be useful for a more comprehensive policy
analysis related to public safety budgets and resources.
• Better leverage funding opportunities, particularly at the Federal level.
NEXT STEPS:
Establish consensus on building an information network.
Develop and distribute summary report of 2011 Summit.
Agree to meet again in 2012.
