The Town of Rocky Mountain House is conducting a Municipal Policing Model Study to explore options for policing service providers, including the existing RCMP, in our community.
As part of this study, a survey was launched for residents to share their experiences on policing until May 6.
Your feedback is crucial to ensure that highly skilled RCMP Members continue serving Rocky Mountain House effectively. We encourage you to use this survey as an opportunity to share your thoughts and priorities for policing. It’s quick and easy—just a few minutes of your time.
Municipal policing reviews across Alberta have consistently shown that the RCMP is the most cost-effective choice available. After evaluating the costs, challenges, and benefits of municipal policing versus the Alberta RCMP, several municipalities, including Red Deer, Airdrie, Beaumont, and Olds, have opted to retain the RCMP as their preferred police service. In fact, repeated surveys indicate that 86% of Albertans in rural and RCMP-served areas want to keep the RCMP in their communities and support improvements.
