<br />CENTENNIAL LAKES POLICE DEPARTMENT COMMUNITY
<br />INVITATION {
<br />Residents of the City of Centerville are receiving an invitation from the Cen- ;~
<br />tennial Lakes Police Department to participate in their new philosophy of Problem
<br />Oriented Policing (P,O.P,), Problem solving is the primary strategy of Community
<br />Oriented Policing. The philosophy is not sufficient to merely respond to a report of
<br />a specific crime: an officer should also attempt to find a permanent solution to any
<br />possible recurring problems by identifying and correcting underlying conditions that
<br />led to the call for service. The police department feels that if the philosophy is to be
<br />successful, it is imperative that they and the community work together "in partner-
<br />ship". The police department cannot achieve excellence without the community's
<br />assistance. The community meeting will take place on April 14, 2009 at 7:00 p.m.
<br />at St. Genevieve Community Parish Center located at 6995 Centerville Road. If
<br />you have any questions prior to the meeting, please contact (763) 784-2501,
