Crime Free Training

Crime-Free Housing

This basic 4 hour course is open to the public and introduces landlords, property owners and managers to the best practices toward achieving the goal of a Crime-Free property. While no property can be entirely immune to criminal activity, the basic Crime-Free training course will provide a variety of tools and techniques essential to the promotion of a safe community. While this course is voluntary, some property owners/managers may be required to attend if their property receives a certain number of notices by the city. More information can be found in Chapter 95 and Chapter 197 of the City Code.
