Q&A
Our officers are here to patrol our neighborhood and are not here to give tickets for wrong way parking/expired inspection stickers. 

The large bus that gets parked on Rickover apparently belongs to a neighbor on Thunder Road and is illegally parked. This has since been looked into by SENP patrol officer who spoke with the driver on 10/24/22. He is on contract with DISD, transportation for inter school connections for students while the district is short on drivers. Our SENP officer advised him to park on school grounds and not on the neighborhood streets.  He complied and left. 

Officers are patrolling, even if you aren’t seeing them. We check patrol activity sheets each month against the DPD car rental records and each officer sends a text check in each time they are on patrol. 

4-way stop sign at Willow and Drujon is being considered but is not being handled via SENP.  

Keep reporting students who are hanging out in the residences and alleys near WT White High School to 911. Also report any speeders down alleyways or streets to 911. 

Remind any person or company working at your home to lock their trucks or take all expensive tools inside. 

2023 Enrollment Begins November 1
2023 begins November 1, 2022. Please visit https://schreiberenp.org/join/ to join today. 
Any member not renewing should return their yard sign to SENP by
December 31, 2022.

Gay Donnell Willis Crime Update on District 13
Crimes against persons are down across the district by 5.45% when compared to last year. 
District 13 has the lowest rate of crimes against persons in  
 all of Dallas. 

Crimes against society are down by 2.53% compared to last year. (Crimes against society include gambling, drug offenses, prostitution, animal cruelty, weapon law violations, pornography/obscene materials. 

District 13 has seen a 17.86% rise in crimes against property. Almost 98% of this rise is from Theft from Motor Vehicles, Theft of Motor Vehicle Parts/Accessories or Unauthorized Use of Motor Vehicle (UUMV.
Again let’s all do our part and TAKE, LOCK & HIDE property in all motor vehicles. Leaving items visible is an invitation for criminals to take your hard earned property. Don’t let them do that! 

Homelessness Rapid Rehousing Initiative
Gay also gave a brief update on the Homelessness Rapid Rehousing Initiative, which surpassed its first year of housing over 1200 people. She asked that residents call 311 to report encampments as the City uses this data to prioritize where to reply resources. While asking for money from a sidewalk is a protected right, a panhandler may not enter a traffic lane–please call 911 if you see this. She also reminded us who want to help others to give through a nonprofit that is better equipped to help versus giving money, food or other items as it trains panhandlers to stay where they are.

Thank you!
Thanks to those of you who called 911 and our SENP patrol officer two nights ago about three gunshot “sounds” heard in Schreiber. Our SENP officer was on duty and responded immediately to the call. He said he also saw the report on his DPD call report since someone had called 911. The officer didn’t find anything but believes it may have been someone driving by and firing randomly out of a car window. Calling 911 is important so that our officers will see all the calls in our area when they check in for duty. 

If You See Something Suspicious, Please Say Something. Call 911 first!   

Reminders

  • If you see a crime in progress, call 911 first and then the SENP mobile phone.
  • If no one answers, the next officer on duty should return your call or text.
  • If they don’t do this, please let us know so we can help address any issues with our DPD SENP Coordinator.
  • Instead of calling 911 you can also make a report here: https://www.dallaspolice.net/reports/Pages/coplogic.aspx
  • Officers may not always be on duty when you call about a crime or request an out of town home check. The next officer on duty should reply to your phone call or text but if they don’t, please let us know by emailing us.
