The Police and Crime Plan has been released for York and North Yorkshire.
This is a key document for the county and has been headed by York and North Yorkshire Deputy Mayor for Policing, Fire and Crime, Jo Coles.
As a document it very much sets out her plans for tackling crime and policing since she took up the role in June 2024.
A crime plan is a strategic document that outlines priorities and objectives for reducing crime and disorder in a specific area. It is typically developed by a Police and Crime Commissioner (PCC) or similar authority. The plan includes:
-
- Objectives: Goals for policing and crime reduction.
- Resource Allocation: How policing resources will be distributed.
- Community Input: Views from local residents and crime victims.
- Accountability: Mechanisms to hold law enforcement accountable.
The plan serves as a public document to guide efforts in creating safer communities.
