In 2003 in response to a series
of incidents along First Street between Larchmont Boulevard and Van Ness
Avenue, the Windsor Square Association decided to make Neighborhood Watch
part of the existing block captain network.
Block
captains are now asked to report any incident in their area to the Windsor
Square Association at
so that this information can be circulated to the block captain network.
We also copy the LAPD and the Council Office. In this way the neighborhood
is kept informed and a record is generated.
Along
First Street east of Larchmont, or “Quad 2” as it is also
known, the block captains have been asked to update their roster of neighbors
and to enlist the assistance of a back up person. Neighborhood Watch signs,
funded in part by a grant from the Council Office, will be installed later
this year. If this pilot program proves successful it will be extended
to the rest of Windsor Square.
Because
there is a danger of misinformation and duplicate information being circulated,
we ask that these crime reports flow back to the community through the
block captains. However, if anybody has something they wish to report
directly they can do so by e-mailing us at .
Remember to list the time and date of the incident and any significant
descriptions.
ALSO
REMEMBER – REPORTING A CRIME TO US IS NOT A SUBSTITUTE
FOR REPORTING IT TO THE LAPD!!!
