On Tuesday morning I entertained 3 Police officers from Dandenong at Carrical who came to learn about best practice in ‘old style rooming houses.’ In their own area they have been experiencing worrying levels of violent incidents between resos in such facilities. They were fairly blown away by what I, and a few of our resos had to say about how to run such a community brilliantly. We left them with much food for thought and we are already looking forward to being invited down to Dandenong to talk further with Police, local Council, rooming house operators et al re our ways of doing things.
