Published in today's DomPost the, senior police command is again taking the same attitude it had to the 'Rowdy' Sevens Rugby and look how they killed that event.Added with a poor local media presences the 'we know best' approach by constabulary collectively will see a future deterioration of the event capital. At a time when the New Mayor is fighting to put the city back on the map, these civil servants using our rates and tax dollars are more intent on wanting to create laws rather than enforce the existing one. Policing in NZ has bee too focused at senior levels on wanting to dictate the law instead of resolving the poor crime resolution figures they have. Where is the burglary resolution clearance rate ? Still below 10% !
Where is the traffic control other than revenue gathering activity? Poor! And look at the pathetic way they handled both activity and PR around White Island. Embarrassing~!
So let a revitalization and new fresh look be adopted for Courtenay Place and get the 'after dark' atmosphere back. It is still the best precinct to develop for hospitality along with Jackson Street in the Hutt Valley as the two primary yet uniquely diverse platforms for entertaining locals and visitors to the region. Invest in innovation. The rule is if you create a safe, vibrant and broadly attractive area with a range of offerings from performance to good food then people will respect it and treat it well. The carrot instead of the stick! At the same time police need to do the job they are their to do NOT become the law makers but remain the law keepers who quietly and discreetly handle their duties.
Exaggerating a few 'incident's for their own political gain is not what we pay police for. They need to regain the public respect not start a new witch hunt as this article highlights. As to the media like DomPost and Stuff... they need to stop blowing up these negative crumbs into sensational paper-selling stories. There hands are not clean as was demonstrated in the Sevens debacle.
