Neighbors carrying hotdish, Jello, brownies and all kinds of foods will be setting up tables and chairs tonight in streets across Minnapolis….part of the largest National Night Out in the country.
This will be a great time to talk with your neighbors, but this year Night Out will be even more important for our goal of making every part of Minneapolis a safe place to call home.
We will be coming together to celebrate remarkable progress is driving down crime. We are also asking everyone in Minneapolis to use this night to build an even stronger connection with our police.
We are asking everyone in Minneapolis to sign up for our new Safety Alerts that you can receive by cell phone, through e-mail, or online. Anyone can sign up to stay connected with public safety news in their area, including crime alerts, community updates, and important advisories. Signing up http://www.nixle.com/. (On the page, you can find Minneapolis under the “Featured cities” section.)
This is one more step in our drive to spend this next few months developing neighborhood safety plans for all parts of the city…using input from residents and block clubs to impact where we put our police resources. So have a good meal, meet more new neighbors and take a minute to sign up for alerts that can make you another partner in our effort to build, and protect, safe neighborhoods.
