| 2012-03-14 08:53:41 | THE POLICE DEPARTMENT RECOMMENDS C.P.T.E.D. PRINCIPLES |
| | AND A RISK AND VULNERABILITY ASSESSMENT (TERRORISM, |
| | NATURAL DISASTER) ARE INTRODUCED INTO THE DESIGN STAGE. |
| | FOR A BUILDING TO BE TRULY SECURE, SECURITY |
| | CONSIDERATIONS MUST BE IN THE ARCHITECTURAL DRAWINGS |
| | FROM THE BEGINNING. |
| | |
| | CPTED COMPLIANCE: |
| | CRIME PREVENTION THROUGH ENVIRONMENT DESIGN IS A BRANCH |
| | OF SITUATIONAL CRIME PREVENTION THAT MAINTAINS THE |
| | BASIC PREMISE THAT THE PHYSICAL ENVIRONMENT CAN BE |
| | DESIGNED OR MANIPULATED TO PRODUCE BEHAVIORAL EFFECTS |
| | THAT WILL REDUCE THE INCIDENTS AND FEAR OF CRIME. |
| | |
| | TO THE URBAN PROFESSIONAL OR ANY CREATOR OF PUBLIC AND |
| | PRIVATE SPACES, THE MOST EFFICIENT, LEAST EXPENSIVE WAY |
| | TO PROVIDE SECURITY IS DURING THE EARLIEST PHASES OF |
| | DEVELOPMENT. FOR THE PLANNER OR DEVELOPER, THIS MEANS |
| | THE EARLIEST CONCEPTUAL STAGES. FOR AN ARCHITECT, IT |
| | MEANS THE DESIGN PROCESS. CRIME PREVENTION THROUGH |
| | ENVIRONMENTAL DESIGN INVOLVES DESIGNING THE BUILT |
| | ENVIRONMENT TO REDUCE THE OPPORTUNITY FOR CRIME AND |
| | DISORDER. THIS APPROACH TO SECURITY DESIGN RECOGNIZES |
| | THE INTENDED USE OF SPACE IN A BUILDING AND IS |
| | DIFFERENT FROM TRADITIONAL SECURITY PRACTICES, WHICH |
| | FOCUSES ON DENYING ACCESS TO A CRIME TARGET WITH |
| | BARRIERS AND TECHNIQUES SUCH AS LOCKS, ALARMS, FENCES, |
| | AND GATES. CPTED TAKES ADVANTAGE OF OPPORTUNITIES FOR |
| | NATURAL SURVEILLANCE, ACCESS CONTROL AND TERRITORIAL |
| | REINFORCEMENT. THE DESIGN PROCESS SHOULD INCLUDE CPTED |
| | SO THAT NATURAL AND NORMAL USES OF THE ENVIRONMENT WILL |
| | MEET THE SAME GOALS AS PHYSICAL AND TECHNICAL |
| | PROTECTION METHODS. |
| | |
| | |
| | 1. PRIOR TO THE ISSUANCE OF THE FIRST BUILDING PERMIT, |
| | THE APPLICANT SHALL SUBMIT A CONSTRUCTION SITE SECURITY |
| | AND MANAGEMENT PLAN FOR REVIEW AND APPROVAL BY THE |
| | POLICE DEPARTMENT. AFTER SITE CLEARING AND PLACEMENT OF |
| | CONSTRUCTION TRAILERS, THE DEVELOPER/PROJECT MANAGER |
| | SHALL INSTITUTE SECURITY MEASURES TO REDUCE OR |
| | ELIMINATE OPPORTUNITIES FOR THEFT. THE MANAGEMENT PLAN |
| | SHALL INCLUDE, BUT NOT BE LIMITED TO, TEMPORARY |
| | LIGHTING, SECURITY PERSONNEL, VEHICLE BARRIERS, |
| | CONSTRUCTION/VISITOR PASS, REDUCE/MINIMIZE ENTRY/EXIT |
| | POINTS, ENCOURAGE SUBCONTRACTORS TO SECURE MACHINERY, |
| | TOOLS AT END OF WORK DAY, FENCING WITH SCREENING AND OR |
| | ANY OTHER MEASURE DEEMED APPROPRIATE TO PROVIDE A SAFE |
| | AND SECURE WORKING ENVIRONMENT. NONCOMPLIANCE WITH THE |
| | APPROVED SECURITY AND MANAGEMENT PLAN MAY RESULT IN A |
| | STOP-WORK ORDER. NO TRESPASSING SIGNS NEED TO BE POSTED |
| | EVERY FIVE-HUNDRED FEET (500?) AROUND THE PERIMETER OF |
