Chief's Overtime
Program:
At last year's SRNA meeting, APD Sgt Huston described this
"pay for patrol" program whereby APD
officers can contract with specific neighborhood
associations for additional patroling. This
ABQ Journal article describes the program, which has been
heavily used by the Glenwood Hills Neighborhood.

No Solicitors! Our own APD Foothills Substation
is now offering you a NO
SOLICITORS sign free of charge. Click here
for details. Here are some other items from Jill Garcia, Crime
Specialist at our Foothills Substation:
- APD
Foothills Area Command web site: www.foothillsareacommand.com;
we have a web site now and want all citizens to sign on as subscribers
(at the bottom of every page) and they will get automatic emails
alerting them when I post to the web site. I am currently
posting
Daily Watch Notes on property crimes in the past 24 hours, events,
community workshops we are hosting, etc. It's a great
resource.
- No
Solicitors signs: we have a new supply and they are available
at
the substation. Just come by the lobby and get one; if you
don't
see one just ask one of our Office Assistants. I've also
placed
the APD Crime Prevention handout on Door to Door Soliciting with the
signs so our citizens can read about the ordinance. The signs
are
the size of a license plate and are meant to be posted at the front
door, front window or front gate to the home.
- Foothills
Substation Lobby: we have a brief write up I did available
for
the public on the new chip-embedded credit cards rolling out this year
and related crime prevention materials on ID Theft, Safety on the
Internet, and Preventing Scams, Cons and Fraud.
