24. THE STRATEGIES WE WILL EMPLOY Signage, cameras, extra patrols, lighting (solar/green), encourage public to call. CPTED. Have the Redmond School District enforce it’s policy on kids in park during school hours. Establish a new City ordinance excluding kids from parks during school hours. Punch SW 15 th St all the way through, this will increase traffic, making the park better lit at night and more visible.

29. HOW WILL WE KNOW IF THIS PLAN WILL WORK OR WILL NOT WORK? Quarterly review and analysis and a year end analysis of calls and activity at the end of the year. Survey of general public, associated agencies involved in process. Will people refer to the park as “Sam Johnson Park” again.
