Safer Communities and Neighbourhoods (SCAN)

The Safer Communities and Neighbourhoods Act (SCAN) allows Albertans to take back their neighbourhoods by reporting problem residences and buildings.  SCAN, which was a key recommendation from the Safer Communities and Crime Reduction Task Force, promotes community safety by targeting/investigating properties that: negatively affect the health, safety or security of one or more persons in a neighbourhood; and/or interfere with the peaceful enjoyment of one or more properties in a community or neighbourhood.
