I attended the 4th Precinct meeting last night, November 2, and here are my notes.
4th Precinct Meeting 11-2-2021
Bob Murphy attended the 4th precinct meeting on 11-2-2021. The meeting was well attended.
Inspector Romagnoli ran the meeting. He introduced Deputy Inspector Webber who has transferred into the 4th from another command.
Cope officers were present and a 4th precinct officer recounted what happens in a typical welfare check.
Representatives from the pistol licensing bureau who gave a presentation on their bureau.
The PLB is responsible for issuing pistol licenses to residents of the police district. The Sheriff’s office issues licenses to residents of the east end.
There are currently 42,676 pistol licenses issued by the county.
There is a long wait to receive a license due to the high number of applications and limited staff.
Applications may now be submitted online and there is approximately an 18 month wait to get an interview from the time the application is submitted.
Vehicle thefts were up slightly.
Inspector Romagnoli again cautioned us to be careful when we go to the gym, etc. as there have been numerous vehicle break-ins where valuables have been stolen.
The next 4th precinct community meeting will be held on December 7th at 7PM.
Thanks!
Bob Murphy
