Target Corporation Supports West Broadway Coalition!

Minneapolis based Target Corporation (Target) is generously providing the West Broadway Business and Area Coalition (WBC) with technical assistance around public safety improvements. Target is working with the WBC to review safety and security strategies to determine some potential solutions to minimize nuisance crimes such as loitering and public drinking and criminal activity on and around West Broadway Avenue.

While this is a new partnership, the assistance from Target has already proven quite helpful. Some key potential next steps around enhanced use of technology, communication tools, and more will greatly enhance the West Broadway Business and Area Coalition ability to successfully execute the West Broadway, Cleaner, Safer, Greener project. This support from Target will tremendously help the WBC to achieve its ultimate goal of improving the perception of safety on West Broadway and in North Minneapolis as a whole.

For more information, contact the WBC office at 612.353.5178
