Portsmouth Police Citizen's Survey

The Portsmouth Police Department is seeking input for the Police Departments Strategic plan. Please take the time to complete this survey so that voices from Shea Terrace will be held.

Two observations. There are two questions in a very short survey which cover police salary, which seems a bit of overkill. In addition, there is an area in which citizens are asked to state which crime concerns are most important. Crimes range from serious violent crime to littering. A challenge in this rating area is to be clear that quality of life issues can also be important (if this is important to the person completing the survey). Obviously no one is going to state that public intoxication is more important than gang violence, but public intoxication can also be important to a neighborhood's quality of life. It will be interesting to see how this might be interpreted.

There is an area at the end of the survey for a respondent to write his or her own notes.
