6. Park and Trail Safety — Captain Brown, Fayetteville Police Department
Davis asked about the safety issues at Walker Park and what is being done to address
this issue in South Fayetteville.
Brown discussed the following:
There are currently two initiatives between the Police Department, the city, the University
PD, and private property owners. One is how to handle and clean up camps, and two
teach community not to set up camps. From the PD's perspective, it is treated as a
complaint driven process. Currently, the PD is understaffed, with few applicants. Due to
this, there is no one assigned to Trail Patrol at this time. In the summer, SRO's will be
available for Trail Patrol. There are a few officers in training, that will be coming out soon.
The Mayor and City Council are working to help secure more applicants with a $10,000
incentive. PD is taking 3,600 - 3,800 calls a month and those are calls for service, not
including anything else that is self -initiated. The minimum staffing for patrol shift is 10
officers, so they are very busy. He said call the police if you see anything. The Mayor and
City Council are working to help secure more applicants with a $10,000 signing bonus for
