The City has provided a City Watch Community Patrol Service to the community since 1997.
It provides community safety patrols for residents, local businesses (perimeter patrols) and visitors to the City of Joondalup and, in collaboration with local Police, provides a physical presence in the community and acts a deterrent to activities such as antisocial behaviour, graffiti and vandalism.
