January community meeting was attended by John Callori and Debbie Grayer. It was another short meeting due to the hacking incident. 

Most emails and data systems are back, but key ones are still experiencing a problem.

The precinct has put together a task force to combat street racing.  They have issued over 130 tickets in the Wicks rd area alone.

There is still the big push on lock your vehicle up when it’s unattended.

The ongoing issue with catalytic Converters is still there.
