The Neighborhood Watch program is now a reality. On March 24 more than 40 residents attended our initial Neighborhood Watch meeting. With 99% enrollment, Officer Crum of the Irving Police Department was pleasantly surprised by the turnout and overall participation. He provided a brief presentation about how the program works and also provided tips on how to insure its success. Thanks to Jim Wilson and Ed Cancel for not only organizing the drive to initiate the program, but also for coordinating enrollment, and thank you to Woody and Sandra Southerland for hosting the meeting. Meetings will be held quarterly and anyone with any questions or input is asked to contact Jim or Ed. Additionally, all of us would like to thank Officer Mark Dahl for stopping by specifically to hear feedback from an entire room of people regarding disturbances in our neighborhood. As Officer Dahl mentioned, the IPD has a no tolerance policy and will begin ticketing when called. He asked that we please call the Irving Police Department dispatch unit at (972) 721-2661 when a disturbance occurs. They will respond promptly to the call and will not provide anyone with information about who called.
