*Periodic Watch Offers Extra Eye on Homes When You’re Out of Town*
Did you know that the Albuquerque Police Department (APD) offers Periodic
Watch Requests to residents who ask? This free service can be requested by
calling your area command. If officers are available during the time your
home is vacant, they will drive by and do a visual check of the home. *Please
note that this service can only be done if officers are not busy with
dispatches or as their time allows between service calls*. Residents are
encouraged to let trusted family or neighbors know if they’ll be gone and
if anyone will be checking on the house, having mail and newspapers
stopped, and not posting absences on social media, but this can be an
additional option for helping keep your home safe during your absence. To
request this service, contact your local substation or area command. For a
list of area commands, visit: https://www.cabq.gov/police/

officially the City’s regulatory land use and zoning document, and the
Planning Department is only accepting development applications that comply
with the IDO. Due to notification process changes outlined in the IDO,
neighborhood association contacts can expect to see an increase in
communications regarding development within the City of Albuquerque. If you
would like to access the document electronically, it is live on Planning’s
webpage: https://www.cabq.gov/planning/codes-policies-regulations/

*Tips for Calling 911 vs. 242-COPS (2677)*
We may all need to call 911 to report an emergency at some point, but
oftentimes, we don’t realize what’s considered an emergency and what’s not.
Below are examples of emergencies that should be reported to 911, and
examples of non-emergencies that should be reported to 242-COPS.
*Emergency 911 – A situation where someone’s life or property is in danger
or being threatened, or an in-progress crime.*
· Accident with injuries
· Attempted suicide
· Ambulance and/or rescue calls
· Person injured or bleeding
· All fire calls
· Strangers forcibly entering a neighbor’s house or car
· Strangers carrying appliances, luggage, etc., from a neighbor’s
house
· People with visible weapons preparing to fight
· If your home has been broken into while you were gone. Note: DO
NOT ENTER THE HOUSE ALONE!
· Shootings, stabbings, armed robberies, and rape
*Non-Emergency 242-COPS – a situation where a person’s life or property are
not in immediate danger, or where there have been no injuries.*
· Smashed doors or windows in unoccupied house or stores
· Abandoned car on street
· People loitering near schools
· Information or rumors about impending or past crimes
· “Late” discovery about crimes against people or properties
You can also report a non-emergency crime using APD’s smartphone app, or
online at: www.cabq.gov/police/file-a-police-report-online. You can view a
video detailing when to call 911 vs. 242-COPS here: https://www.youtube.com/

*Crime Mapping Tool Shows Online Real-Time Activity in Albuquerque*
Have you bookmarked Albuquerque Police Department’s (APD) Crime Mapping
Tool yet? This online, real-time map of criminal activity offers residents
an up-to-date snapshot of what type of criminal activity is happening in
their neighborhoods. Visit: http://www.cabq.gov/police/
online-services/crime-mapping/ and make sure to bookmark the page, as it is
updated daily.
*No Bus or Sun Van Service on Memorial Day*
ABQ RIDE will not have either bus or Sun Van paratransit service on
Memorial Day, Monday, May 28. There will be no Rail Runner service that
day, either. Please plan ahead accordingly if you utilize public
transportation or paratransit service. Regular service for buses, Sun Van
and the Rail Runner will resume on Tuesday, May 29. For more information,
visit: www.myabqride.com
*APD Offers Online Feedback Form for Permanent Police Chief Search*
The Albuquerque Police Department (APD) is in the process of hiring a new
police chief, and your input is vital! What qualities do you feel are
important for the next chief to have? Share your thoughts and suggestions
online at: www.cabq.gov/mayor/community-engagement/national-police-
chief-search
*Won’t You Be My Neighbor?*
Are there senior citizens in your neighborhood? Why not get to know them
and see if there’s anything you can do to help them? Seniors often have
mobility issues or may not have dependable transportation, so offer to help
pull weeds, take their trash to the curb on collection day, take them to
the grocery store, or even just leave them a note with your telephone
number. Sometimes knowing there is someone to call is all the help folks
need!
*ONC Offers Conflict Resolution Tools for Neighborhoods*
Do you sometimes deal with conflict within your neighborhood group? It’s a
common issue, and the Office of Neighborhood Coordination (ONC) can help.
We’ve put together a series of Toolbox articles designed to help you
implement best practices to avoid conflict, what to do when conflict does
occur, and how to keep your own cool and calmly deal with differing
viewpoints. To check out the Toolbox series, visit:
