Inept PEP allow park crime to triple in 2012
February 20, 2012
The inept Park Enforcement Patrol (PEP) officers are in the news again. The WSJ is reporting that crime in the city’s parks tripled in 2012. The article points out that there are only 100 PEP for all of the city parks. It is unclear whether that is including the 45 PEP assigned to our small parks in BPC. Either way, for the 45 well-paid PEP in Battery Park to not be patrolling all parks at all times is unacceptable.
There is no excuse for not having PEP officers overseeing the West Thames grass field, the dog runs, and the smaller Rector and Wagner parks at all times. Currently, PEP will respond when called for problems in those parks, but routine PEP presence is only found in the larger Rockefeller Park “Great lawn” and Teardrop park. Continue reading
