Crime Prevention Unit

This is a reminder of the policy that is in effect in the advent of adverse weather conditions.

It is the recommendation for the safety and well being for those involved to cancel any and all meetings and minor events that involve the EPD/CPO unit.  This policy is in place to help assist those involved to help determine if a meeting or event will be held.  While we will attempt to make notifications when possible there may be times when these notifications may be missed.  Below are some guidelines to follow if you ever question if a meeting will still take place.

                  When local news outlets or National Weather Center issue a 

                  weather advisory, a storm watch, storm warning, or other

                  natural disaster that covers the time period of the meeting then 

                  that meeting will be cancelled

                  If the EVSC or participating school systems close, then the

                  meeting at those locations will also be cancelled.  This may be

                  harder to determine since individual schools may close.  If in

                  doubt contact the EVSC or school in question.

                   Anytime the City of Evansville announces that the city is closed 

                   for whatever reason then all meetings will be cancelled.

This policy is to help insure the elderly, physically challenged, and anyone who walks to meetings stay safe and is not endangered.  It is our goal first and foremost to keep people safe and sound.  If the organization or neighborhood determines they still want to hold a meeting, that is their decision to do so, but they do so against the advice of the EPD and will do so knowing an officer will NOT attend the meeting.

If you are not sure if we have your contact information, do not utilize Nextdoor.com, the EPD & CPO Facebook pages then call the Crime Prevention Office and give us your information.  If you have any questions, contact your beat CPO.
