FHNA Sponsored Meeting on Crime Concerns

Tuesday, October 27, 2009

7PM

LDS Chapel

1300 E Fairfax

(just south of Shriner's Hospital)





The FHNA is responding to Crime Concerns by Federal Heights residents in the next FHNA sponsored meeting. Detective Rick Wall from the Salt Lake City Police Department will be speaking on two programs supported by the SLCPD. Both Neighborhood Watch and Mobile Neighborhood Watch allow citizens to participate with police in preventing and reducing crime around their homes.



Neighborhood Watch is a group of neighbors on a street or block who decide to work together to mitigate crime in their area. It is easily started by one person, who is the initial Block Captain. Step by step instructions and support from the SLCPD and the FHNA are available. If you are interested in starting a Neighborhood Watch in your area, you are asked to email fedheights@yahoo.com before the meeting. By doing this, you will get additional support at the meeting in getting things going.



Mobile Neighborhood Watch takes a more active involvement and training and more time, but enables one to go on patrols and assist the police in special projects through out the city, including your own neighborhood. Detective Wall will have applications and explanations for this program at the meeting as well.



Do join us! Open to all Federal Heights Residents.
