July 2018 Statistics
July 2018 statistics compared to July 2017 statistics show a
two percent decrease in “Calls for Service” and a 13 percent decrease in
traffic accidents.
What are “Calls for Service?” This is ANY incident or
concern in which you may call us for when you are in need of assistance.
Traffic "contacts" had a 16 percent decrease
compared to the month of July last year. We issued 343 citations and 659
warnings. (On some contacts more than one warning or citation is issued.) These
numbers reflect our interest to educate and remind people of what their
responsibilities are on the roadway and to make our community a safer place to
drive, bike and walk.
“Part One Crimes” for the month of July 2018 compared to the
month of July 2017 stayed the same with no Homicides, no Sexual Assaults, no Motor
Vehicle Thefts, no Aggravated Assaults, no Arson, Burglaries increased to one
(home under construction) and no Robberies. Thefts increased from four (4) to
five (5.)
Part One Crimes are essential quality of life crimes that
have adverse effect on the community. These crimes are the most serious
offenses against the community. These crimes are based on what “city crime
rates” reflect, based on population.
We contribute many of these low numbers regarding serious
crime to YOU, the community. Your aggressive style, awareness and willingness
to get involved, help us deter crime.
When you see something suspicious, YOU call us, and we
appreciate it. We have your back, and we know you have ours.
