Neighborhood Crime Watch Program

Neighborhood Crime Watch is a group of neighbors, most often living in a one block area, that have agreed to watch each others property and report suspicious or criminal activity to the police department.

This program has been effective in deterring crimes such as burglary, theft, vandalism and auto theft.

The Crime Prevention Unit is comprised of a police officer and a crime prevention specialist who may be reached Monday through Friday, 8:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m., at 861-9875 or 861-9845.
