Safe Communities Humboldt & Area launches positive ticketing campaign
The 2020 Positive Ticketing Campaign is underway in Humboldt.
The Safe Communities Humboldt & Area campaign rewards citizens who are choosing and encouraging safe behaviours like using protective gear while skateboarding and cycling, or simply crossing the street at marked crosswalks.
“We want to recognize those individuals that are choosing safe behaviours as we do start to re-open activities here for the spring and summer, and award them with a positive ticket and a prize,” Executive Director Shari Hinz told northeastNOW.
In any other year, Humboldt RCMP, Fire, and Ambulance Service members would hand out the positive tickets in the community. Hinz said with the COVID-19 pandemic that’s not possible, so they are taking a different approach this year.
