Councilmember Dr. David Varner asked when the police focus on what specific area does it look <br />like the crime migrates to a different part of town or gets eliminated. <br />Council Ruskowski responded both happen. The crime does migrate out of a focused area but the <br />crimes do become less frequent. So ten (10) in an immediate area may get pushed out and then <br />say five (5) calls will happen. The crime may change but the people don't change so the more we <br />get off the street and help will reduce crime overall. <br />Councilmember Jo M. Broden asked if there was anyway to recognize these businesses that do <br />the work of helping these people. <br />Chief Ruskowski responded that he would send her the list and contacts of every business. <br />Council President Tim Scott suggested the councilmembers should sign up to do a ride along <br />with the police because it was eye opening for him. <br />There being no further business before the Committee, John Voorde adjourned the meeting at <br />4:40 p.m. <br />Respectfu mitted, <br />John Voorde, Chairperson <br />
