Dallas officials promise to return with a better apartment crime-fighting plan after city council members complained the plan presented this week is too weak.
“We conduct the survey, we prepare the presentation, addressing everything that we saw out there. We give that to them, go over it with them, and then follow them through the process of implementing those steps,” Stephens said.“I’m asking for more proactive. I’m asking for a stronger response to these apartments,” Mendelsohn said.
Assistant City Manager John Fortune said several city departments will be included with police for a better action plan. “We’re happy to come back to the committee with further discussion about some of those strategies. I think that’s our intent,” Fortune said.
