Pathway for Public Safety
Objective
The Orlando Police Department’s Community Policing Division and the
City’s Code Enforcement Division are working to reduce crime and code
violations in Parramore by adding Code Enforcement Officers and by
assigning Orlando Police Officers to build relationships with residents,
business owners and key stakeholders. The ultimate goal of public safety
efforts is to promote positive change within the Parramore community.
Strategic Initiatives
- Develop a “no tolerance zone” for
drugs and prostitution
- Coordinate collaborative partnerships
with OPD, OUC and Code Enforcement to ensure proper lighting levels
within Parramore
- Increase the number of officers
assigned to the Parramore Community by nine officers
- The City has developed a computerized
tracking system to ensure a “crackdown” on repeat code offenders. This,
combined with the addition of 3 code enforcement officers dedicated to Parramore, has resulted in a 350% increase in code enforcement’s case
management within Parramore.

This month, City of Orlando Police Officers will begin a door-to-door

on housing rehabilitation and public safety programs as well as to begin
building relationships with residents.

Parramore, construction is now underway on the CityView Police
substation and is scheduled for completion within the next few months.
