Minutes of the Special Meeting of the Riverside Park Neighborhood Association

December 6, 2006

Terri  Kinis called the meeting to order at 6:00 PM

Guest speaker was Ray Robakowski, new community liaison officer of the Milwaukee Police 5th District, to talk about crime and the Block Watch program

He presented a brief overview of crime in the neighborhood, as logged on maps. In November there were 6 thefts, 2 auto thefts, 3 burglaries, 2 robberies (on Oakland), and 1 assault.  And he presented a brief overview of the Block Watch program, which calls for monthly meetings, designed to raised alertness. 

Questions included: 1) whether it=s OK to call him very often: it is. 2) whether it=s OK to detain an offender: it is. 3) what to look for as a witness. 4) whether to include students: yes, they walk the neighborhood a lot, and have concerns about crime. 5) what to do about high school students= cars and associated littering: MPS pays officers for overtime beginning at 3:30, and witnesses should take offending license numbers and call the police. 6)Block Watch signs: the aim should be to have one in every house. 7)concern about police response time.

The next meeting will be at 6:30 PM.   Kay Baldwin (Murray Hill) and Else Ankel (Cambridge Woods) will be speakers.  (Both neighborhoods have strong Block Watch programs.)  The Block Watch segment of that meeting will take place from 7:30-8:00

Respectfully submitted,
