Safety Patrols Started

Northeast Shores has set aside a small budget to hire private security patrolling for our community. The Safety Steering Committee has been taking into consideration special events that are taking place in North Shores Collinwood and scheduling Tenable Security for patrol duty. Unfortunately, we can only arrange 4-hour patrols on a very limited basis.

The committee welcomes suggested dates for patrols. There are three different district patrols that are possible around:
East 185th
Waterloo Rd.
Lake Shore Blvd.

For instance, on Tuesday, March 4, St. Jerome's Church was hosting the Collinwood Fire Memorial event. Tenable patrolled the area and Lake Shore Blvd. between 6:00-10:00 pm. The officer was asked to watch the parking lot and the surrounding streets. Making visitors feel safe is part of our mission as well as keeping residents safe.

For a small fee, you can have the Tenable officer patrol your business or home on the evenings they are working the area.

Currently, Tenable is scheduled to patrol on:
Saturday, May 10
Saturday, June 14 both in the Waterloo area since the Second Stage performers are having an event.

Please give Barb a call at (216) 481-7660 or e-mail her at bmullally@northeastshores.org if you are interested in joining this patrol initiative.

As the summer months approach, more patrols will be scheduled also.

We look forward to hearing from you.
