Crime Patrol

---

The FMCP is chartered to provide security & crime prevention services to the Forest Meadow neighborhood with patrolled services by off-duty Dallas Police Department (DPD) police officers. This DPD presence assists in lowering crime, providing additional quick response efforts to you, your family and loved ones.

Membership Provides:

• Paid off-duty DPD officers patrolling in DPD marked cars   
• 25-45 hours per week of patrol (the number of memberships increases the number of patrol hours)  
• A dedicated (non-emergency) phone number  to DPD officers to report concerns
• FMCP members not only get courtesy armed patrols by DPD but also monitoring & checking of homes for people out of town (by request) 

The FMCP patrol area encompasses the residential areas generally described as Forest Meadow, Oakhurst, Stone Creek, & Twin Bridge. This area is bounded on the north by Windy Crest, on the east by Abrams Rd., on the south by Whitehurst, & on the west by Greenville Ave.

There are 545 homes in this area with currently only 45% participation – with more homes joined, there is more patrol time! 

• Each FMCP membership provides approximately 6 hours of Dallas Police Department (DPD) patrols   
• FMCP contracts with DPD off-duty officers that are familiar with our area of Lake Highlands, and they patrol in a DPD police car 
• FMCP DPD patrolling officers will stop, investigate & escort suspicious vehicles/individuals out of the neighborhood   
• Patrolling officers will escort truant children back to school 
• FMCP members not only get courtesy armed patrols by DPD but also monitoring & checking of homes for people out of town (by request) and also courtesy calls in the case a garage door is left open   
• FMCP participation can drive additional social events such as ‘street/block parties’, holiday safe events & much more – we encourage your support through our social channels
