    Extractions: Crime Prevention Crime Prevention Alerts Neighborhood Watch: General Recent Vandalism Safeguard Your Home ... Home Search for: The Types of Neighborhood Watch Programs Neighborhood Watch is simply a crime prevention concept that calls for citizens to watch out for their neighbors' property. Knowing this, criminals are generally unwilling to risk detection, so they don't commit the crime or go elsewhere. Because neighborhoods are different in terms of geography, population, and the extent and nature of crime, Neighborhood Watch programs must vary from area to area if they are to be successful. Whereas criminals may be dissuaded from committing a crime in one neighborhood using passive observation, they may be willing to take the risk in a more rural community using the same basic strategy. Some of the basic program variations include: Passive Observation : Passive observation is an activity residents must always be involved in. Residents must always be on the lookout for suspicious or unusual activity. Passive observation is not recommended as a patrol substitute except in the smallest and most compact communities. Window Watch : A scheduled activity, window watchers should set a routine to follow. Whether checking every 15 minutes, or more or less often, they should be aware of the responsibility to make an effort to stay to their routine. Window watchers are often residents who are house-bound for reasons of health, advanced age, disability, being a single parent or being a primary caregiver in the home.

    Extractions: screen resolution of 800 X 600 First of all, if you are interested in starting a Neighborhood Watch group in your neighborhood, or would just like to have some more information about it, give me a call at 924-9574. The Neighborhood Watch Program is designed to organize you and your neighbors to watch out for one another by reporting suspicious activities in your area. Literature and signs are supplied to Neighborhood Watch groups enabling them to be more effective, while advertising to would be burglars the existence of an active Neighborhood Watch group. The reputation of this program is often sufficient to scare away potential thieves and vandals. We are actively recruiting for new Watch areas and Block Captains. All too often a citizen will see suspicious persons or possible criminal activities and fail to report it to their police Department. As a result, many crimes occur that might otherwise have been prevented. Citizens must learn to be wary of their surroundings and perceptive of what seems out of place or out of the ordinary. It may be something as simple as a suspicious door-to-door salesman, a moving van loading your neighbor's furniture, or a strange vehicle or person in your neighborhood. What you report may very well be harmless or it may be someone casing a neighborhood to commit a crime. Regardless of what it turns out to be, the presence of a patrol car in response to your call will demonstrate that your neighborhood is no easy mark for criminals.

A typical Neighborhood Watch block extends from intersection to intersection, both sides of the street. It not only breaks down the barriers and brings neighbors together, but it has proven to reduce crime in an area. The neighbors are invited to attend a presentation put on by the Community Police Services Unit. The presentation is on residential and vehicle security, personal safety, and an overview of what the Salinas Police Department offers its citizens. Neighborhood Watch signs are then posted to identify the block. This program works! For more information contact the Salinas Police Community Services Unit at from 7:30 am to 5:30 P.M. How you can get started: No one person or law enforcement agency can be aware of every situation that occurs in a neighborhood at all times. That's why neighbors are the best defense against crime! To help build strong neighborhood crime prevention networks, the Salinas Police Department sponsors Neighborhood Watch. Crime and the opportunity for crime go hand-in-hand. Neighborhood Watch reduces the opportunity for crime in your neighborhood. By implementing basic crime prevention techniques, watching out for one another and reporting suspicious activity to police, neighbors create a unified front against crime. This increases the risk to criminals and decreases the likelihood that a criminal will be successful.

    Extractions: NEIGHBORHOOD WATCH The cornerstone program of the Kern County Sheriff's Department Crime Prevention Unit promotes the important partnership between law enforcement and the community. Working together to reduce crime and enhance the quality of life in our neighborhoods, we can make a difference. Residents act as "eyes and ears" for law enforcement, learning how to make their homes more secure, watching out for each other and reporting suspicious activity to the Sheriff's Department. Topics discussed at a Neighborhood Watch meeting include home security, neighborhood awareness, making a call for service, Operation ID (marking of property with California driver's license or California ID number), and the importance of signing the neighborhood with Neighborhood Watch signs. Participants are encouraged to ask questions and voice their concerns regarding problems within their neighborhood. BUSINESS WATCH The companion program to Neighborhood Watch is Business Watch. This program has been developed for commercial property owners throughout Kern County. A healthy community begins with a healthy business community and this program is designed to help business owners avoid becoming the victims of burglaries and thefts from the public and internal losses due to employee theft. Business security, loss prevention, bad checks/credit card fraud and ways to coordinate communications with other business owners are discussed in this program. Business owners are also encouraged to participate in the Owner Applied Number system, which is a nationwide method of marking commercial property in an effort to retrieve that property should it be recovered after a theft.

Its purpose is to create an alert citizenry by teaching residents simple crime prevention measures, and by providing both general and specific information concerning crime in each neighborhood. Neighborhood Watch encourages residents to familiarize themselves with the activities of their neighborhood by, for example, knowing who works during the day, which automobiles belong where, recognizing people who belong in the area, and noting those who do not. This basic knowledge, together with a few precautions, will prevent many crimes in our city. Additional crimes will be prevented if residents will take time to properly secure their homes, record serial numbers through the "Operation Identification" program, jot down license numbers of strange cars cruising around a neighborhood, and report all suspicious persons to the police.

    Extractions: Crime Prevention Tips Property Crime Prevention The Washtenaw County Sheriff's Department has had tremendous success in recovering property in cases where citizens have been able to furnish a sufficient description of their stolen articles, complete with serial numbers. Therefore, to ensure that your stolen property is retrieved and returned to its rightful owner, the Sheriff's Department offers these simple suggestions on property identification: Take the time to record the serial numbers of all your property and valuables. Some of the most repeatedly stolen items include: radios, televisions, stereos, microwave ovens, computers, guns, lawn mowers, snow blowers, etc. Serial numbers are usually recorded on a sales invoice at the time of purchase, or can typically be found on the back of the property. This is good information to jot down and maintain on file in a safe place. Engrave a personal identification number on each unit or item. A driver's license number would be one of the most readily identified numbers to use. Be certain to include the name of your state before the number.
