The new initiative will see officers (usually at sergeant level) assigned to engage with key stakeholders, such as business owners and schools in specific sectors of the Police Service Area.
Senior Sergeant Mark Byers said the launch of this initiative was timely.
“Police will also be using this opportunity to promote the Benalla Safety Survey, which can be accessed online from June 29 until August 31,” Sen Sgt Bayers said.
“This community safety survey aligns with the purpose of CommConnect – to find out the local safety issues that matter most to our community.
