2 Easter is around the corner and with it comes a long break that many families have come to enjoy and take the opportunity to get away. During this time there can be an uptick in burglaries and thefts due to the larger than usual amount of empty schools, homes and buildings. My officers will have this in mind when patrolling but I would like you to know how important it is for neighbors to look out for each other as well. If you are leaving for the week, let a trusted neighbor know to keep an eye out for your home and to pick up mail so it does not pile up. Some audible alarms are not monitored by a security company. If you here an alarm go off on a building, call it in. Residents and businesses interacting and actively engaging one another is a powerful tool in creating a safe neighborhood and community. Time for some Bayview street name history: Palou Avenue is named after Francisco Palóu, a Franciscan missionary, administrator and historian who played a key role in the establishment of California's Spanish mission system. He was also a member of Juan Bautista de Anza's (Anza St.) expedition to San Francisco. "Stay safe, happy, and healthy" Sincerely, Captain Steven A. Ford, M.S.

Now you can connect to city services with only two numbers to remember: 911 for emergencies and for everything else. Before 311, over 50% of calls to the 911 center were not emergency related. 311 relieves 911 operators from these non-emergency calls. If a catastrophic emergency such as an earthquake occurs, 311 operators will be able to provide accurate information to assist during the recovery. In the unlikely event the 911 facilities becomes inoperative, the 311 call center will function as a back up.
