Litter Abatement

NNMD De-Litter Campaign

NNMD kicked off its litter abatement program in March 2016 after a law enforcement official remarked that the District "...didn't have a crime problem, it had a litter problem." Litter in our area gave the appearance of neglect. The District instituted a contract litter abatement program with regular routes along our commercial corridors. In the first month, 3,200 pounds of litter (1.6 tons) and 175 "bandit" signs were removed; that totaled almost 93 pounds of trash per mile. With cleaner streets and sidewalks, the "pounds per mile" has decreased – a sure sign of increased pride in our area.

Camera Program at NNMD

Community safety is the driving force at Near Northwest Management District.  NNMD has installed surveillance cameras to monitor activities on and around public spaces.

"NNMD's forward-thinking strategy is an asset to our contract with the District.  Our Constables have direct access to the equipment and can use the recordings to aid in any investigation.  This joint effort with the District is an asset to the entire community!" said Captain Hennessy from Harris County Precinct 1 Constables.

This program provides additional resources to our law enforcement and has been instrumental in many investigations around the District.  The added value of the program warrants additional sites to be installed around the District.

"Our force is spread thin along the fourth largest city in the country; we are diligent and with the aid of technology provided by NNMD the video monitoring has assisted our efforts to eradicate crime in our area," said Commander Harlan Harris of the Houston Police North Patrol Station.

NNMD is committed to providing technology and resources that will enhance the success of law enforcement in the Near Northwest Community.

Public Safety Meetings

Public Safety & Security Committee

Monthly Public Safety & Security meetings are held every 2nd Tuesday, 9 a.m. in the main Board Room of the White Oak Conference Center, 7603 Antoine Drive, Houston, Texas 77088. The District encourages commercial property owners and residents to attend monthly Public Safety and Security Meetings where law enforcement officers, private security personnel and concerned citizens work together to address security in the area.

Crime Stats

The community is safer today than when the District was first created, thanks to innovative partnerships between the Constables, Houston Police Department, Harris County Sheriffs Office and private security forces working together to provide creative crime prevention initiatives. In fact, from 2009 to 2013, Part 1 crime dropped 69%. These results have made our area safer which allowed local neighborhoods and communities to grow economically and competitively to become a vibrant place for businesses and residents alike.
