FACT: Businesses small and large continue to suffer economic and personal loss from the criminal segment of today’s society.
FACT: Increasingly, the private sector is incurring significant costs in an effort to provide their own protection of property.
SOLUTION: If you are a Martin City business, you can join the MC-CID Security Program!
The Martin City Community Improvement District offers all Martin City businesses the opportunity to join the MC-CID Security Program. The MC-CID Security Program is a partnership between the Martin City CID, the Martin City businesses and Orion Security Inc. We offer ONE level of participation to all businesses electing to enroll in the program.
The MC-CID Security Program provides services 365 days between the hours of midnight and 6:00 a.m. The officer on duty makes 6-7 district circulations per evening and will shine a light on all participating business properties to detect suspicious activities. Should suspicious activities be detected, the officer will call the property owner and Kansas City Police Department, if warranted. The MC-CID Security Program coordinates all security monitoring with alarm companies installed by the business. MC-CID keeps a log of each incident per night. All incidents are posted monthly at the Board of Directors meeting and shared with the Kansas City Police Department.
On December 24th at 1:10 a.m. Christmas Eve morning, the CID Security Program noticed Jess & Jim’s Steakhouse had a water leak on the second floor. Because they were able to notify the owners in a timely manner, the problem was addressed and it was back to business as usual for Jess & Jim’s Christmas Eve patrons.
“We can’t express enough how thankful we are that our security program helped us out that night,” said Mike VanNoy, Jess & Jim’s owner. “We had a pipe break inside the Restaurant. We got a call at home from our security telling us water was coming out the second floor. We got down here and got the main water line shut off. If it wasn’t for the security company, the water could have run for 8 hours but instead it was only a couple of hours!”
The annual cost to a Martin City business is $500 per Martin City property, or $1.36 per day, which is less than a small cup of coffee at Starbucks! In addition to your annual payment, the MC-CID also pays an annual fee to offset the direct cost to the business.
