Police service is primarily for crimes against <br />people, such as assaults or domestic calls. It is mainly serviced by the Apple Valley commercial area on Cedar <br />Avenue. It represents a typical mobile home park for the City. Though it may be in better condition than other <br />parks in the area, it does represent what future parks would look like. <br />FINDINGS: <br />Safety is a major issue in these areas. The mobile homes provide housing affordability through lower quality <br />construction and smaller lot sizes. The City would do well, from a fiscal standpoint, to make efforts to minimi�r <br />police services through crime prevention programs possibly financed by the mobile home park owner. <br />Special Notes: Mobile home parks are responsible for the construction and maintenance of their own roads. <br />C, <br />27 <br />
