We have a vision of Belmont as a City that is attractive, safe, healthy and prosperous. The City has developed close working relationships with the local Police service and the Office of Crime Prevention so a collaborative and coordinated approach to crime prevention can be taken in the City. We are proud of the many initiatives developed to make our community a safer one.
Security Patrols
The City operates a 24 hour security patrol service to support the Police in maintaining law and order. The patrol officers can be contacted direct on 1300 655 011, 24 hours a day, 365 days a year.
BeCrimeAlert
BeCrimeAlert is the first Australian internet-based crime prevention communication system, to support Western Australia Police and crime prevention initiatives. It utilises SMS, telephone, email and postal service to quickly communicate current threats and alerts to the community.

Criminal Damage (Graffiti)
The City is working to keep your community free of criminal damage in the form of graffiti. We aim to remove reported criminal damage (graffiti) within 48 hours of notification and offer a free removal service to make this happen. Removal methods include:
• Painting out the graffiti on previously painted surfaces with one of our nine standard colours.
• High pressure cleaning on unpainted brickwork and other hard surfaces and all surfaces that have been coated with a graffiti coating.
For more information contact the City’s Crime Prevention Team on 9477 7226.
Help us by reporting criminal damage caused by graffiti.
Neighbourhood Watch
A safer community is brought about when people get involved in their local areas and support each other in crime prevention activities. A great way to help is to get involved with the very successful Neighbourhood Watch program. There is a Neighbourhood Watch group in Belmont, with coordinators in every suburb. To contact Neighbourhood Watch call 9356 0558.
Security Appraisals
A great initiative is our FREE security appraisal service for all local residents and businesses. For more information contact our Crime Prevention Team on 9477 7264.
