Weed and Seed Award
In Fall of 2009 Davenport was awarded a Department of Justice Weed and Seed grant. The focus of these funds will be improving a targeted area using a two pronged approach; weeding out undesirable activities through law enforcement and community policing, while building resources to improve the outlook of residents through neighborhood restoration and prevention, intervention and treatment. The Davenport Weed and Seed Steering Committee will oversee efforts to integrate and leverage existing organizations and efforts in order create the greatest impact.
Target Area
The boundaries of the Weed and Seed targeted area are Locust to the River and Division to Farnam. This encompasses areas of wards 3, 4 and 5.
