Ward 3 Councillors Ron Dupuis and Louise Portelance invite residents of
Valley East to a Community Safety Forum on Tuesday, March 4th,
2003. The forum will take place from 7 pm to 9 pm at the Citizen Service
Centre / Public Library, 4100 Elmview Drive, in Hanmer. This is part of a
series of Community Safety Forums being hosted by the Greater Sudbury
Police Service along with Ward Councillors.
"Citizens will have an opportunity to meet Ian Davidson, our new
Chief of Police," said Councillor Ron Dupuis who encourages everyone
to attend. "Senior officers will also be on hand to provide
information and answer any questions citizens may have."
"The Greater Sudbury Police Service is committed to providing
quality policing in partnership with our community and the Community
Safety Forums offer an excellent opportunity for citizens to bring forward
their concerns," said Councillor Louise Portelance. "In some
areas of the city, the forums have evolved into police advisory panels
because citizens identified the need."
"We will present some changes in our service delivery as a police
organization and listen to local citizens talk about issues that are
important to them," said Chief Davidson. "This forum will give
us an opportunity to dialogue with the people we serve to ensure we
respond to community needs. We will also let citizens know how they can
access the variety of programs that we offer."
