Police chief reports lower major crime, outlines National Night Out plans
Summary
Police Chief Nelson told the council major crime is down this year, flagged juvenile incidents and loose dogs as primary challenges, and announced National Night Out on Aug. 4 plus extra patrols for the Rough Stock Rodeo; he also invited residents to 'Coffee with a Cop.'
Police Chief Nelson told the council "it has been a busy summer, and both the graduation and rodeo parades went smoothly" and estimated the recent Street Dance attendance at about 300 people. He reported major crime has decreased this year, identified juveniles and loose-dog incidents as the primary operational challenges, and said curfew enforcement has helped reduce late-night problems.
Chief Nelson announced National Night Out is scheduled for Aug. 4 at 5 PM and said additional patrols will be in place for the Rough Stock Rodeo on the first weekend of August; he also invited residents to "Coffee with a Cop" at My Sidewalk Café on the third Thursday. The minutes record these operational updates but provide no comparative crime-statistics tables.
