Lacombe County focuses on crime prevention
LACOMBE COUNTY- Rural crime was one of the leading issues raised during Lacombe County’s Municipal Development Plan and Land Use Bylaw review.
It was also highlighted as a concern during recent meetings with local crime prevention groups and during town hall meetings set up by MP Blaine Calkins.
Council recently approved the release of Lacombe County’s Guide to Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design or CPTED.
The guide sets out easy to incorporate design principles for properties, which can greatly reduce the chance of a crime occurring.
