Description

During Fall 2016, Public Safety identified issues within the "Old Town Community" and our officers identified all housing within the "Old Town" area that were leased to students. Our officers then went and met with those 18 houses as well as meeting with their surrounding non-student neighbors. During this process open dialogue about expectations as well as how to be "good neighbors" were discussed
