organized groups watch out for one another. In order to stay active in the <br />Crime Watch Organization, these groups must hold meetings twice a year. <br />The first of these meetings is an informational meeting usually held in the <br />spring. These meetings can be held at a residence or in a public location. <br />The second meeting is a social gathering which is held on Night to Unite. <br />Participants of the Crime Watch Groups must also be involved in the <br />Operation Identification Program. Operation ID is explained in the section <br />below. <br />Currently there are over twenty neighborhood crime watch groups in our <br />jurisdiction. During 2009 there seemed to be a spike in interest for setting up <br />Neighborhood Watch Groups; however, there has been difficulty in keeping <br />up participation for those involved. We understand that people today are <br />busy with many things, but strongly encourage our residents to take the time <br />to look out for their neighbors and receive the same protection in return. We <br />are hoping to add more residents to these Neighborhood Crime Watch <br />groups in 2010. For more information on crime watch groups, or if you <br />would like to start one in your neighborhood, contact the Crime Prevention <br />Officer. <br />Operation Identification <br />MEMIMM <br />OPERATION I.D. <br />Operation Identification is a citizen's burglary prevention <br />program for use in homes and businesses.

When stolen property is recovered, officers <br />are able to track ownership and return the property in a timely manner. The <br />police department offers the tools and assistance to properly mark and record <br />all valuables and property in your home and business. <br />Proiect ROCKET <br />The Centennial Lakes Police Department has been promoting an <br />innovative program for families who have children with special needs. <br />Project ROCKET (Response Outline Created for Kids and Endangered <br />Teens), created by CSO Austin, is a program developed to better prepare law <br />23 <br />42 <br />
