We strongly support the ac<on steps detailed on the previous pages. It is impera<ve that all levels of city government, agencies throughout the community and the community itself re-‐ engage in the CIRV process, with a commitment to showing the small percentage of persons in Cincinna< who engage in violence that such ac<vity will not be tolerated. Within the department, the CIRV effort must be an effort that involves all Bureaus, and in which informa<on rela<ve to the CIRV process is widely shared, without silos evolving which prevent such communica<on. For city government, it is cri<cal that the community and agency efforts that are an integral part of the CIRV strategy be resourced. A source of funding for cri<cal component costs must be found. It is an incredibly important investment in Cincinna<’s future and the economic viability of the community. It is also important that the performance measures for the CIRV ini<a<ve be incorporated into the department’s performance management process (CompStat). The en<re effort can have increased if the problem-‐solving strategy being developed by the Problem-‐Solving Unit gets incorporated in an integral manner with CIRV. Focusing apen<on on the nature of the environmental loca<ons (places) where a majority of violent crime occurs can create ac<ons that bring the community and the city into building neighborhood safeguards that will prevent future occurrences of violent criminal acts. It can become a model for the country.
