Bellevue Security Patrol
Since it's establishment in 1996, The Bellevue Security Patrol has had a unifying effect, and positive impact on the safety of our community.
It has been cited by the police as a role model for other neighborhoods. We are enormously grateful for the help over the years of those neighbors who have been involved in the patrol. We hope to continue to enhance the safety of our residents for many years to come.
Do you have an hour or so each month to help your neighborhood?
Security Patrol needs help filling empty patrol slots. Grab a neighbor, friend, partner, wife, or husband and volunteer to ride around Bellevue for 1 hour to 1 1/2 hours, once every 4 weeks. Help your neighbors watch out for their homes and businesses and encourage a safer neighborhood for everyone.
