The Wheaton Police Department is taking its roll calls out into the neighborhoods to connect with you.
Prior to the start of each tour of duty, Wheaton Police Officers gather to report for a roll call, where they are briefed on calls for service in the past 24 hours, emerging crime trends, intelligence information, locations in need of extra watches and more. This is the time for officers to share what has been going on in their assigned beats.
Now, we are bringing our roll call out into the community, where you can meet with the officers who are assigned to your part of town. Officers will be on hand to discuss local issues and concerns about your neighborhood as well as providing tips to keep you and your family safe. We encourage you to attend the Neighborhood Roll Call that is happening in your neighborhood, as the topics discussed will be specific to your area. A map on the City’s website at www.wheaton.il.us/rollcall will show you the City’s seven police beats and the event happening in your area.
At the Neighborhood Roll Call, officers will also show you how to initiate online requests for city services and register for SMART911, and you can make officers aware of issues directly related to your neighborhood.
The Neighborhood Roll Calls will be occurring on Tuesdays at 6:30 p.m. between June and August, with a different location each week. The first three Neighborhood Roll Calls will be:
- June 8, 6:30 p.m.
Briar Knoll Park
532 Tennyson Drive (on south side of park - June 15, 6:30 p.m.
Hoffman Park
411 N. Prospect Ave. - June 29, 6:30 p.m.
