Red Deer’s Annual Policing Plan

Red Deer’s Annual Policing Plan, or APP, is developed by Red Deer RCMP and The City of Red Deer, with final approval by City Council. The plan outlines the top priorities to be addressed by policing strategies over the specified time period.

The APP is typically a two-year plan, running from April 1 to March 31 of each year. In developing each APP, The City and RCMP together conduct public consultation to understand community concerns and priorities as they relate to crime and safety.

2020-2022 APP

The 2020-2022 APP outlines three priorities:

  • Crime reduction – property and drugs
  • Public safety – dynamic enforcement
  • Community relations – responsive and visible

While the 2020-2022 APP remains in effect until March 31, 2022, RCMP have already seen great success in addressing these priorities. From October 2019 to October 2021, Red Deer saw a 59% reduction in drug crime and a 43% reduction in property crime. In addition, strategic proactive policing and crime reduction efforts have seen positive improvements in our local crime statistics over the past few years.

2022-2024 APP

The City and Red Deer RCMP are working together to develop Red Deer’s 2022-2024 Annual Policing Plan, which will take effect April 1, 2022.

The APP is developed using real crime data and public feedback to understand community priorities and areas of focus. RCMP work in consultation with City Council to determine top policing priorities for our community over the next two years.

As part of the planning process, we’re asking the public to share their experiences and concerns to help us identify areas of focus for our policing priorities.

Please participate in our online survey, open until February 28, 2022.
