The Crime and Safety Committee focuses on issues related to the safety and well-being of Cleveland Residents. Some of the work of the Committee is to address the perceptions of crime versus the reality. The Committee also nurtures relationships between the residents and the Police Department and make residents aware of resources available to provide home security assessments. Additionally, the Committee oversees a Litter Patrol/Snow Patrol that matches Cleveland Neighborhood youth with Cleveland Neighborhood seniors to provide Lawn Services and Snow Removal.
