Committee hears new plans on community safety and well-being
The community safety and well-being plan was presented to the City of Ottawa's community and protective services committee to improve the well-being of all Ottawa's communities.
The new governance structure included in the plan aims to establish the following:
- Community leadership action teams to develop and implement detailed plans for each priority
- An advisory committee to provide strategic direction
- A councillor sponsors group to champion the plan and to guide policy and financial strategy
- An office of dedicated city staff to support the entire initiative and coordinate with participating agencies
The city plans to recruit a broad range of individuals for these initiatives in the second quarter of 2022 with a financial and performance evaluation plan expected in the first quarter of 2023.
