The speaker at the Greater Rockridge NCPC’s August 9 meeting will be Gina Wong, OPD Communications Dispatcher.  The NCPC has asked her to discuss issues such as:

• How many calls do they get?  How do they assign call priorities?
• Staffing and training – what is the timeframe for recruitment and hiring?
• When you call 911, what do they want to know?  Why do they ask that?  How do they hand off calls for dispatch?
• What’s the issue with calling 911 from a cell phone?  What is the non-emergency number for?

Ms. Wong will also take questions.  Join us at 7:30 PM on August 9, in the conference room of the Rockridge Library, for this interesting subject.

If May was a slow month for crime in beat 12Y, June has come roaring back, at least for both types of property crime.  Ordinary property crimes roughly doubled, from 8 in May to 17 in June.  Auto related property crimes roughly tripled, from 9 to 28.  Other classes of crime increased only slightly or remained flat.  Beat 13X had a total of 9 reported crimes for the entire month.
