'Now is the time for action.' BRVA asked the City of Indianapolis to respond to a list of initiatives to improve public safety in the community.
INDIANAPOLIS — On Monday, the Broad Ripple Village Association met with IMPD and members of the City-County Council to address the recent public safety issues in the area.
It has become routine that nights in the summer months in Broad Ripple Village are met with an increase in violent crime and an overall lawlessness in our streets. We have been informed by IMPD that they are doing everything they can within their power and policies and yet, this continues to worsen. The property damage, injuries, and risk of life sustained by our residents and businesses is unacceptable.
"We welcome the opportunity to discuss this further, however time is of the essence and our community is in crisis," BRVA said."Now is the time for action."
