I, the undersigned, am a Sylvan Park resident and am concerned about crime in my neighborhood and would like more police support personnel for the West Police Precinct and/or more police patrolling in the Sylvan Park neighborhood.

The emails I receive from neighbors sharing their own stories of feeling unsafe are heavy and exhausting to process. I am spending my evenings trying to figure out which city offices will actually listen to our requests for more patrols. It feels like a slow uphill climb but I am not walking away from this.

Seeing this grow makes me feel like I am finally hearing the frustration of our neighbors echoed back. It is exhausting to navigate these streets worried about our safety but knowing you are behind this gives me the energy to keep pushing forward.

yes we are very concerned. It's not just petty theft in cars but people more and more are trespassing in daylight just to steal. I had someone enter my security gate and go in my back porch while I was home to steal a package. Closed gate middle of the day. What prevents that person from turning viloent if seen or next come into the house. There is also viloent crime as well that has seemed to increase, car jacking, assault. I would like to see more police and cameras.

It's time. There's been a rise in theft, vagrancy, and in negligent driving in the past few years. Something needs to change.

Yes please get us more patrols. Also cars come flying down our street Elkins between 46th and 51st. We have a bunch of kids in this area and cars just fly by. It's only a matter of time before someone gets hit.

The crime problem is out of control. I moved here 16 years ago, when Charlotte still had a big vangrany problem, yet, the crime is worse NOW! Please, patrol our streets!

I feel unsafe in this neighborhood for the first time in the many, many years I've lived here. The recent increase in crime in SP and in Nashville overall for that matter is stunning.. The Mayor needs to allocate adequate resources to stop the trend now before it gets any more out of hand. Whatever it takes.
