North Camden Concerns–The Results Are In!

Father Jeff — Tue, 13 May 2008 22:08:30 +0000

For those of you familiar with the DCCB community issues map, you know that it is possible to record your community concerns online and have them be reported directly to the city of Camden for response (www.camdendccb.org). This process has been in place for the last four and a half months. Recently, I put together a chart showing the issues that have been recorded and whether they have been responded to by the city. The top concerns of people in North camden are:

Suspicious Activity
Grafitti
Abandoned Homes
Trash

The blue bar shows how many concerns have been filed in District 1 and the red bar shows how many of those concerns have been addressed by the respective department. I want to give a shoutout to the Camden Police Department who are handling the concerns of the Districit 1 with promptness. The suspicisous activities issues represent a little over one third of all conerns that have been expressed about District 1. Nice job to the Camden Police Department! Father Jeff Putthoff, SJ

Community Concerns Website—What A Success

Hey, I am excited. The community concerns website—www.camdendccb.org—went live last week and the response has been great. I can’t believe it–we have had these stubs of street signs sticking up in front of Hopeworks for a year now–they were jagged pieces of metal. I have attempted to report them before but nothing happened. This time, I tried with the website and low and behold, they were removed yeserday! Wow!!!! Makes me motivated to keep reporting. In fact, we have decided to monitor within a three square block radius of Hopeworks and to make known any of our concerns. I hope others do this as well. The cool thing is that a youth got into it and began reporting issues near his house in Fairview! Awesome.
