An effort to smash crime in Dundee city centre could receive a funding boost, if councillors give the green light to the cash injection tonight.
The community safety partnership is asking for £40,000 from the local authority to increase its crime-fighting activities.
City Leisure and Culture director Stewart Murdoch said the money would be spent on a raft of measures to help improve public safety.
Personal safety alarms for vulnerable people would cost £3,000, Mr Murdoch said, while £10,000 has been allocated to beef up security at the homes of vulnerable residents.
More than £3,000 has also been earmarked to provide high-tech mobile phones to those under threat of domestic abuse.
In a report to councillors, Mr Murdoch said: “The Dundee community safety partnership commissioning budget is identified to support the key priorities as outlined within the Single Outcome Agreement, (that our) communities will be safe and feel safe.
“The community safety partnership has the responsibility on behalf of the Dundee Partnership to deliver on this outcome.”
He added that the aims of the project were reducing levels of crime, reducing levels of reoffending and reducing fear of crime.
The community safety partnership has received wide-spread praise for its success in battling criminals and anti-social behaviour.
Policy and resources convener Ken Guild previously said he believed the programme was making the city a safer place.
