Posted/updated on: April 10, 2012 at 1:31 pm
LONGVIEW — The Longview Police Department and the University of North Texas have teamed up to conduct a survey of residents regarding police services. The research study was reviewed and approved by the University of North Texas Institutional Review Board. According to a police statement, the survey is being issued “as the Longview Police Department strives to provide professional police services to the citizens of Longview.”
Police say the survey is designed to provide feedback to the Department on numerous topics including:
1. The identification of perceived crime in Longview
2. The level of citizen satisfaction
3. Possible fear of crime
4. The familiarity with community-based police programs
Surveys were due to be mailed to 3,500 residential addresses in Longview around April 9. If you receive a survey in the mail, you’re asked to complete or have a member of your household 18 years of age or older complete the survey. It should then be returned directly to the University of North Texas in the provided postage-paid envelope. Police say the results of the survey will be available later this year.
