GRDC has several initiatives to improve public safety and address blight across our five neighborhoods. GRDC’s Crime Prevention Task Force (CPTF) is a resident-led initiative that meets regularly to develop strategies for residents, business owners, and visitors in Grandmont Rosedale to protect themselves and their property. The CPTF holds bi-monthly Neighborhood Safety Meetings that feature guest speakers from the police, fire and public safety departments. These meetings are a great way for residents to get to know their law enforcement officials better, and to bring their concerns directly to their representatives.
For more information on any of these initiatives, contact Community Engagement Manager Kyle Marcelis at 313.387.4732, ext 103 or kyle@grandmontrosedale.com.
