OUR TARGETS Goal achievement (Desired outcomes) has traditionally led to target setting. In all too many cases managers set targets that for various reasons are unrealistic and are rarely met. For this plan we have agreed that we will set minimum reduction percentages which ensures that the targets are attainable – and the challenge (for us all) is to better those targets for any given period. In 2004/05 our area crime targets are To reduce overall reported crime by 5% or better To reduce house burglaries by 5% or better To reduce theft ex cars by 5% or better To reduce unlawfully taken (stolen) motor vehicles by 5% or better To reduce violence by 5% or better To reduce family violence by 5% or better To reduce repeat victimisation by 10% or better To increase overall crime clearances/resolution rates annually by 1% or better 4 In 2004/05 our area road policing targets are To reduce road accidents by 5% or better. To reduce our serious crash rate. To reduce our road fatalities. To deliver upon our contractual strategic traffic obligations. To maintain a productivity rate of 1 offence notice per hour or better. To increase restraint wearing compliance. To increase helmet wearing compliance. To reduce median speed on our roads. 4 Our aim is to produce (or better) the 1% resolution rate consecutively over 3-5 year. (E.g. 5+%over 5yrs) Area Policing Plan 2004 / 2005 10
Partnerships Historically Police have regarded themselves as 'crime fighters' or law enforcement officers, and have either by design or default carried the responsibility and a good deal of public accountability for community safety. There has been a strong emphasis on enforcement to the detriment of prevention. Studies of enforcement operations targeted to specific crimes suggest that enforcement alone provides short term benefits for crime reduction. In 2001 Police in Canberra, Australia, executed several operations targeting burglary through 'hot location' analysis and deployment against known recidivist offenders. (Operation Anchorage) Whilst the operations were celebrated, subsequent analysis demonstrated that the crime reduction gains were lost over a relatively short period. In our recent history there is a growing recognition that Police must work with other statutory organisations, key stakeholders and service providers as they also can contribute to reducing crime and improving road safety. Palmerston North City Police will work with appropriate groups and organisations executing both prevention and enforcement initiatives. We recognise that there is a need to balance prevention and enforcement and that we must create a synergy between both aspects. In diagram our approach is as follows.
