Community involvement is essential to the success of a Weed and Seed site. Getting residents and grassroots faith-based and community organizations involved from the very beginning is essential. A number of tools are available to assist sites in communicating effectively and in mobilizing the community. For more information, see Promoting the Weed and Seed Strategy.

Paradise South is bordered by Paradise Road on the north, Carpenter Road on the west, the Tuolumne River on the south, and Hwy 99 on the east. The area includes residences in both city and county jurisdictions.

Operation Weed & Seed is a multi-agency strategy that "weeds" out violent crime, gang activity, drug use, and drug trafficking, in targeted high crime neighborhoods and "seeds" the target area by restoring these neighborhoods through social and economic revitalization.

The Weed & Seed boundaries are Lohman Avenue, Madrid Street, Solano Avenue, and Main Street.

Lynndale also has the unique ability to provide an awesome Neighborhood Watch Program for the residents to participate in.

The Paradise South Steering Committee directs and oversees the administration of the project and funding, implements the Strategic Plan, and sets priorities and direction of the program. The steering committee includes Paradise South Partners from both public and private organizations, businesses, as well as area residents, who all are committed to the goals and objectives stated in the strategy.

The strategy involves a two-pronged approach: law enforcement agencies and prosecutors cooperate in "weeding out" criminals who participate in violent crime and drug abuse, attempting to prevent their return to the targeted area; and "seeding" brings human services to the area, encompassing prevention, intervention, treatment, and neighborhood revitalization. A community-orientated policing component bridges weeding and seeding strategies.

The results of that evaluation can be found by visiting the Publications section. In addition, the Justice Research and Statistics Association tracks site outcomes and overall program performance through the Weed and Seed Data Center.

Railways as a whole consume a large amount of public funding and it is essential to demonstrate value for money.

By limiting their number of efforts, however, communities may be more effective in achieving substantial change in a select number of areas. Focusing on a large array of problems may take considerably longer and use more resources to achieve an effective impact.
