Enforcement Updates

It was standing room only in Wabamun at the Community Crime Update hosted by Parkland County Enforcement Services, alongside RCMP Corporal, Ferri. with an appearance by Division 5 Councillor, Rob Wiedeman on February 22, 2024.

After presentations by both the Enforcement team and an RCMP Constable, there was a great dialogue with lots of questions from engaged members of the Wabamun community.

The main takeaways from the meeting were:

Members of the Community need to stay vigilant. If something seems off – it probably is.
Reporting is key, no matter how small the issue may be. This provides the most accurate crime data and allows resources to be deployed in the areas that need it most.

There are several programs offered by our Enforcement team, the RCMP, and the provincial government that can assist residents including:

•CPTED (Crime Prevention through Environmental Design) – Secure your property by having it inspected by a trained officer who’ll provide a report for how to make it less of a target for crime. Call our Enforcement team to book your appointment at call 780-968-8400.

•CAPTURE - Register any security cameras you have with the RCMP to help them track criminal activity more efficiently.

•Online Crime Reporting - The goal for the Alberta RCMP is to make sure all crime is reported, this tool makes it easier.

•SCAN - Safer Communities and Neighbourhoods is a unit of the Alberta Sheriffs that helps keep communities safe by dealing with problem properties that are being used for specific illegal activity such as drug trafficking. Properties can be anonymously reported online or by phone.
