Many believe that the need to improve the safety of Ocean Drive is one of the most urgent issues facing the street. Due to the immediate need for additional security dedicated exclusively to Ocean Drive, between now and the date that additional police officers are physically present on Ocean Drive, the City and/or Ocean Drive businesses will pay a private security company to have 2 security guards stationed on every other block of Ocean Drive between 5th and 15th Streets, 7 days per week (with the number of hours per day to be determined). The issue of who will pay for the additional security and/or what percentages of the overall cost will be paid by which party will be discussed between the City and Ocean Drive property owners. Once the additional police officers begin patrolling in the summer of 2017, the City and Ocean Drive businesses will re-evaluate whether to decrease or maintain the private security presence.
