*****************************************************************************************************
I hope that everyone had a very safe winter
and that you and your family are in good
health as the spring
months approach us.
To keep you updated on the issues with the
Police Department, I want to reiterate
what
I spoke about in the latest edition of the
Walton Hills Owl.
The Police Department is here for your
safety and protection of both life and property.
I am asking that
all residents and our
business partners be concerned with your
surroundings. Stay alert. Be cautious of
people who are driving around the
neighborhood aimlessly. Be aware of the
salesperson that is trying
to sell you a service
or the individual who is seeking money
for charity. If something does not appear
right, it probably isn’t. Call the police.
I am not saying that all of
these people are shifty or that
they are trying to take advantage
of you, but
just be aware.
If you feel that someone is acting
suspiciously, just call us,
we will respond and check
him
or her out. If you are going out of town,
make sure that
you notify the police so that
we are aware
that you are gone. We will
pay special attention
to your property and
do impromptu checks on your
home. Let
your neighbors know that you
are gone so
that they may keep an extra eye out for
anyone
or anything suspicious.
Everyone needs to help combat crime in
the neighborhood; it is up to all of us to ensure
that we continue
to live in a very safe
community. I would also ask that if anyone
has any
concerns about any issues regarding
the Police Department, please contact
me. I will
make myself available to everyone in the community to address
any and all
concerns.
Remember, the Walton Hills Police
Department is here to serve you in any
way possible.
I would like to address a
couple of other things as
well. The loud stereos emitting
from
vehicles has
started to increase again.
This agency has a zero tolerance
for such
annoyance and will cite anyone
caught with a loud
stereo on a first offense.
Please let your children who are driving
know this. We will cite adults and juvenile
offenders without warning.
The same is
true for speeding. Residents are not exempt
from the speed limits posted in Walton Hills.
I am
asking that everyone slow down and be
very cautious of your speed on hills, especially
near the parks where people are walking
or riding their bikes.
Here are a few things to remember
to keep everyone safe.
When walking on streets,
please walk facing traffic and
stay on the shoulder of the
road. We are seeing some
people walking three abreast in
the roadway and this is
not safe for you or
the vehicles that are trying to get around you.
When riding your
bicycles, please ride with
the flow of traffic on the shoulder of the roadway.
I hope that everyone has a very safe and secure summer and remember; if you are not
sure whether or not you should call the police,
then call. We welcome all calls. Never
feel that you are calling for something you
feel might
not be relevant. Let us make that
determination. If you have an emergency,
call 9-1-1.
The non-emergency number for
the Police Department is 440.232.1313.
