While receiving his master\u2019s degree in Urban and Regional Planning at the University of Florida, Reynolds took a class in crime prevention that opened his eyes to the simple things people do <em>not<\/em> consider when building and designing communities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI started to analyze things from this particular viewpoint moving forward and wanted to effectively share these concepts with others,\u201d he said. \u201cI wanted to create something all local residents and community entities could easily understand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reynolds\u2019 presentation, <em>Simple Crime Prevention Techniques to Keep Your Home and Neighborhood Safe<\/em>, is built on the <a href=\"http:\/\/nicp.net\/\">National Crime Prevention Institute<\/a> concept of Crime Prevention through Environmental Design, which highlights how proper design and effective use of the built environment leads to a reduction in the fear and incidence of crime and an improvement of quality of life.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCriminals will go elsewhere because your home, neighborhood or business is a deterrent to them,\u201d explained Reynolds. \u201cThey\u2019re opportunistic, and they\u2019re looking for easy targets. If you make it hard for them, they\u2019ll go somewhere else, thus displacing crime.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reynolds asserts that many of these crime prevention measures are based on common sense, and he stresses how simply knowing your neighbors and adding landscaping and lighting in your yard can deter the bad guys.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe goal of the presentation is to let people know these things can be done effectively on a small scale,\u201d he said. \u201cPeople should realize they are truly empowered to improve their communities and make them safer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Reynolds will be giving his presentation at the annual Orange County Community Conference on Saturday, October 5, 2019 at the Orange County Convention Center, North Concourse. The conference, which focuses on how residents can get more involved in their local government, will include presentations, workshops and a luncheon.
