[quote=Anonymous]It seems what needed is some data about the number of vouchers y/o/y mapped against the increase in crime. Ward 3 had the highest increase in crime last year if I'm not mistaken. This isn't to say vouchers should be cancelled. It's to look at a way to administer the program so that it doesn't destabilize both buildings and neighborhoods. Policies can make a difference. It certainly seems -- at least anecdotally -- that the instances of carjackings are down since the new laws were passed allowing police to detain those (including teens) accused of committing violent crimes until trial. Since then, I'm not hearing about daily carjackings. Now it's down to weekly or every other week. The point is that taking action on vouchers could help to stem the lack of safety along the Connecticut Avenue corridor.[/quote]
