Community Safety
One of the key issues of the area relates to safety in and around public housing. Here we have pulled together some Community Safety areas including Safety Audits, Waterloo Green and the HNSW trial for concierges in Waterloo high rises.
Redfern Community Safety Audit (2010) - This document details the concerns and issues identified by all participants during the safety audit arround public housing in Redfern undertaken in 2010. The report says it will be the basis for planning future activity in the area in the pursuit of improved safety for residents and visitors to the Redfern Area. The document is owned by the Project Control Group which oversaw the Audit and was released in November 2011 after a considerable delay and much agitation. File is 380KB PDF.

Waterloo Green surrounds the main Waterloo high rise public housing. The land is owned by HNSW and residents have complained about anti-social activity exacerbated by lack of maintenance in the area for many years. In many respects the issues of Waterloo Green bring together many of the issues facing Redfern Waterloo which require co-ordinated action by various human services government departments and no-government agencies.
