Tomorrow: 61st Precinct Community Council Meets

The 61st Precinct Community Council will meet at 7:30 p.m., March 14 at The Bainbridge Center, 3093 Ocean Avenue between Voorhies Avenue and Shore Parkway.

The Community Council is comprised of concerned residents and top brass from the 61st Precinct, and offers neighbors an opportunity to ask questions and express concerns about crime and safety issues in the area. The monthly meetings are attended by Deputy Inspector Georgios Mastrokostas, the commanding officer of the precinct, who will present a report on incidents and trends in the neighborhood, and speak face-to-face with neighbors about specific concerns.

Also: In an effort to reduce auto break-in crimes, the community council reminds residents to remove all valuables (pocketbooks, wallets and electronic devices) from your car and lock the doors when leaving your vehicle. They also recommend parking your vehicle in a well lit area.
