Public Safety Cooperative Neighborhood Patrols
The King Park Public Safety Cooperative Neighborhood Patrol Program
is now accepting membership for patrols beginning May 1. Please visit
www.kpadc.org/publicsafety for
registration forms by membership type. Payment is not due upon registration; an
electronic paypal invoice will be sent within several days for electronic
payment or a check may be mailed or dropped off to King Park at 2430 N Delaware
Street (checks payable to King Park Public Safety Cooperative). Rates for

The Neighborhood Patrol Program pools member resources to hire off-duty IMPD
officers to patrol the streets and alleys of the King Park neighborhoods.
- Households, multi-family building/complexes, businesses, organizations, and places of worship within the King Park neighborhoods pool financial resources to hire veteran, off-duty IMPD officers to patrol our neighborhoods.
- The officers will work for the neighborhood, although they retain full police powers and can respond as any on-duty officer. They will be supplementing, not replacing, IMPD service by pro-actively addressing problems we neighbors identify and b y responding to suspicious activity.
- The more members that join the cooperative, the more patrol time is purchased. Patrol times will be random and may be adjusted to reflect seasonal trends and emerging problems.
- Officers will work with the King Park Public Safety Committee, made up of crimewatch leaders from each neighborhood, to address specific problems, locations, and persons.
Benefits of Joining
- Off-duty IMPD officers, with full police powers, will randomly patrol around your home, organization, or business in marked and unmarked vehicles.
- Officers will patrol down the streets, alleys, and side streets of all Cooperative members pro-actively looking for suspicious behavior.
- Officers will provide any advice regarding your property that they notice might make you more likely to be a crime victim.
- Cooperative members have the ability to relay concerns and other information to the on-duty patrolling officers.
- Cooperative members may have the ability to purchase additional services directly from the officers, including a vacation service.
Membership in the Cooperative is open to anyone living in the
neighborhood.
