Community Safety: A Stand Against Illegal Activities

Discover how a community united to reclaim safety.
Law Enforcement Community Safety SCAN Edmonton neighborhood watch

Imagine waking up in a neighborhood where you feel safe, where your children can play outside without worry. Sadly, many communities face challenges that threaten this peace. But here's the thing: there’s hope.

Recently, the SCAN unit of the Alberta Sheriffs took decisive action that sent ripples of relief through the community. They obtained a court order to temporarily close a property on 110A Avenue in Edmonton—closing its doors to illegal activities that have plagued the area. This closure starts on November 5, and it’s a major victory for residents.

What's happening? Here's the scoop:
  • The property will be closed for 90 days.
  • All individuals, including the owner, must vacate the premises.
  • Monitoring will continue even after it's boarded and fenced.

This isn't just a temporary fix. It’s a long-term commitment to safety—the community feeling empowered to speak up against crime. “By staying vigilant, Edmontonians have shown that they won’t tolerate this behavior,” said Inspector Andrew Albers. Their voices matter! They have consistently reported suspicious activity at this property, leading to this pivotal action.

This win highlights the importance of community involvement. When people work together, change happens. Picture this: a community thriving, where law enforcement and residents partner to keep neighborhoods safe. This is the future we all can create together.

So, if you see something suspicious in your area, don’t hesitate. Speak up—your community needs you!
