City Safe plan

Contents

The aim of the City Safe plan is to improve safety in Auckland. The concept of safety includes both real and perceived perceptions and concentrates on areas that prevent, reduce, and/or contain the social, environmental and intimidatory factors that affect the way that people participate in their communities. The City Safe plan will be effective when research informs that a very large majority of people interact in Auckland city without having a fear of crime, as well as believing that their community is a safe place to be.

The plan highlights the need to work with a variety of stakeholders to achieve appropriate and safe outcomes for Auckland City. Such outcomes include a safe physical environment, as well as a responsiveness to issues associated with 'at risk' groups in the community. The plan also provides a mechanism to measure improvements in safety as well as responding to new safety needs. This information will be obtained from feedback through regular safety surveys.
