IhysicaI enviionnenl giealIy infIuences ciine, feai of ciine, and quaIily of Iife. The ieIalionship lelveen physicaI enviionnenl and ciine has lecone noie evidenl in iecenl decades as peopIe nake incieasing use of Iocks, lais on vindovs, caneias, and aIain syslens. AIlhough lhese looIs can have a Iegilinale ioIe lo pIay in ciine pievenlion, lhey aie nol lhe conpIele ansvei. Ioi a ciine pievenlion slialegy lo le effeclive, il nusl le conpiehensive. The soIulion is an appioach caIIed , oi Ciine Iievenlion Thiough LnviionnenlaI Design. As defined ly lhe NalionaI Ciine Iievenlion Inslilule, CITLD is: .a crime prevention philosophy based on the theory that the proper design and effective use of the built environment can lead to a reduction in the fear of crime as well as an improvement in the quality of life. CITLD voiks ly decieasing a ciininaIs aliIily lo connil ciine and incieasing lhe chances lhal lhe ciine viII le seen ly Iegilinale cilizens. CITLD goes leyond liadilionaI secuiily nelhods ly naluiaIIy inlegialing secuiily neasuies inlo lhe connunily. The goaI of ALL CITLD appIicalions is lo: Increase the Quality of Life Decrease Fear of Crime Decrease Crime y foIIoving lhe slialegies piesenled in lhis handlook, honeovneis, apailnenl iesidenls, and lusiness ovneis can achieve each of lhese goaIs. On pages 2-5, you viII find addilionaI infoinalion aloul hov CITLD voiks. On pages 6-1O, lheie aie speciaI CITLD suiveys neanl specificaIIy foi singIe faniIy hone iesidenls, apailnenl iesidenls, and lusiness nanageis oi ovneis. The pages on Iighling desciile lhe vaiious Iighling lypes avaiIalIe and lheii efficiency. CPTED Security Handbook 2 Why does it work? CITLD is effeclive lecause of a concepl caIIed defensilIe space. This concepl suggesls aII space in lhe hunan enviionnenl is defendalIe: soneone nay lake iesponsiliIily foi lhe space and lake aclion lo defend il fion non-Iegilinale, ciininaI, oi uninlended use. AIleinaleIy, space can le undefended. When lheie is no idenlifialIe peison vho is iesponsilIe foi lhe space, il is Iefl exposed lo ciininaI use. Ciine is noie IikeIy lo happen al a Iocalion if il is nol defended, and ciine is Iess IikeIy lo occui if an aiea is defended. The peison defending an aiea nay le lhe ovnei of lhe piopeily, lul lhey nay aIso le a lenanl, a piopeily nanagei, oi an enpIoyee. In oidei lo defend a Iocalion, il nusl le cIeaiIy idenlified and deIinealed, il nusl le nodified lo pievenl access of unaulhoiized peisons, and il nusl piovide good visiliIily foi vilnesses in lhe evenl of a ciine. The puipose of CITLD is lo aIIov lhese lhings lo le acconpIished in vays lhal do nol inleifeie vilh non-ciininaI aclivilies. Does lhis sound difficuIl` SuipiisingIy, il is nol. Defending a Iocalion nay le as sinpIe as luiIding a snaII fence, inslaIIing an addiess naikei, oi culling lack veeds. CITLD voiks lecause ciininaIs avoid doing ciine in lhe piesence of Iegilinale cilizens. Iiopeily lhal has leen piopeiIy defended suggesls lo a ciininaI lhal a Iegilinale cilizen nay le neai lo vilness lhe ciine and caII lhe poIice. Iiopeily lhal is nol defended leIIs lhe ciininaI lhal no one is valching and lhey aie safe lo connil lheii ciine. Like lhe lalIe al lhe iighl shovs, undefended pIaces lhal aie safe foi ciininaIs lo connil lheii ciines aie unsafe pIaces foi Iegilinale cilizens... AIleinaleIy, pIaces lhal aie defended and safe foi Iegilinale cilizens cause lhe ciininaI lo feai deleclion and aiiesl foi lheii ciines. The CITLD goaI is lo nake eveiy Iocalion unsafe foi ciininaI aclivily vhiIe aIso naking lhe sane Iocalions safe and inviling foi Iegilinale cilizens. Unsafe Safe Citizen Criminal Criminal Citizen CPTED Security Handbook 3 How does it work? CITLD is appIied in lhe connunily lhiough one of foui oveiIapping slialegies. Lach slialegy enpIoys a sIighlIy diffeienl nelhod of sending a cIeai nessage lo ciininaIs lhal a iesponsilIe peison is neaily and lheii aclivily is nol veIcone. This seclion of lhis handlook viII leII you aloul each of lhe slialegies, and you viII Ieain hov lo legin appIying lhen in lhe nexl seclion. Natural Surveillance NaluiaI SuiveiIIance is lhe pIacenenl of physicaI fealuies, aclivilies, and peopIe in vays lhal naxinize lhe aliIily lo see vhal is occuiiing in a given space. This is oflen lhoughl of as lhe onIy slialegy of CITLD, lul il is onIy a quailei of successfuI CITLD effoil. An exanpIe of naluiaI suiveiIIance is a paiking gaiage luiIl vilh Iaige panoianic vindovs facing a najoi slieel.

This slialegy voiks lecause il suggesls lheie is soneone piesenl vho has iesponsiliIily foi lhe space and nay olseive ciininaI aclivily. Access Control Access ConlioI is lhe physicaI guidance of peopIe coning and going fion a space ly lhe pIacenenl of enliances, exils, fencing, Iandscaping, Iocks, and olhei laiiieis.
