Resume neighborhood patrols -- bring back Community Crime Patrol by restoring OSU funding

We, the undersigned, petition The Ohio State University to restore funding to Community Crime Patrol (CCP) so that off-campus neighborhood patrols can resume immediately.  We are students, permanent residents, and business owners who recognize the immense value of the extra eyes and ears that the patrollers from CCP contribute to our neighborhoods in deterring and detecting crime.  Since their departure from the University District, we have noticed an uptick in property crime, vandalism, and theft in the area.  Reinstate CCP's funding now so that they can get back to work in the University District as soon as possible!
