Solvay (WSYR-TV) – The Solvay Police Department is already using plate-reading cameras mounted on their patrol cars and have surveillance cameras they can set up anywhere around the village. They’ve now just added another new tool.
Solvay police are teaming up with neighbors online, to keep the village safe.
For a police department that’s been around for 106 years, there’s nothing old fashioned about the way it is connecting with neighbors.
The department’s new interactive website just went live. You can submit a tip, on line, and cops can blog about a just-solved crime.
“The whole idea is to get more information flowing between the police departments and the neighborhoods they patrol,” says Lt. Daryl Perrigo. “They really want to reach out to neighbors who may have a tip about a crime, or a concern and are reluctant to pick up the phone and call them.”
As Summer approaches, the Code Enforcement Department would like to advise residents of the Common Code Violations enforced in the Village of Solvay.
