Recently, the Monrovia Police Department established a new way to reach out to the community. By going to http://nextdoor.com/agency-detail/ca/monrovia/monrovia-police-department you will read the following message:
“Hello Monrovia Neighbors, my name is Officer Juarez, and I am with the Monrovia Police Department’s Community Policing Bureau. I am pleased to announce that starting today, the Monrovia Police Department will be utilizing Nextdoor to share information on crime prevention, safety, public events, and emergency notifications. Please be assured that your Nextdoor website remains private. Monrovia PD staff will NOT be able to see any of the content on your neighborhood website except for the direct replies to our posts. Nextdoor is not the appropriate way to request emergency services, police services, report criminal or suspicious activity, file a report, etc. If you require emergency services, or wish to report suspicious activity, please call 911 or (626) 256-8000. We look forward to connecting with you on Nextdoor to build stronger, safer neighborhoods throughout Monrovia. Please feel free to contact me with any questions or concerns at 626 (256) 8036 or you can email me at yjuarez@monrovia.laclen.org.”
