Fall River Police Chief Furtado Receives New Ebikes for Neighborhood Engagement Team
The Fall River City government meeting on September 30, 2025, highlighted the introduction of four new electric bikes for the Neighborhood Engagement and Enforcement Team (NEAT). Mayor Coogan emphasized the importance of community policing and the initiative's goal to enhance public engagement and safety in the city.

During the meeting, Mayor Coogan noted the efforts to reclaim public spaces, particularly along the rail trail and Quicashan River, to encourage residents to enjoy the area's natural beauty. The initiative aims to foster a sense of community and improve relationships between the police and local neighborhoods.

Chief Furtado expressed gratitude to Mike Dion from the Community Development Agency for their support in acquiring the e-bikes. The new bikes will enable the NEAT to patrol more effectively and engage with residents, promoting a safer and more connected community.

This initiative reflects a broader commitment by the Fall River City government to enhance community safety and improve public spaces, making them more accessible and enjoyable for all residents. The introduction of e-bikes is seen as a significant step in achieving these goals.
