October 2025

Beat 11 is known as the “Business District” of Richmond.  Beat 11 covers businesses such as USPS, Whataburger, Walmart, and Wharton County Junior College.  Beat 11 includes everything west of the BNSF railroad tracks on FM 1640 to Lamar Dr., and businesses in the 1200-1600 block of FM 2218 which includes the businesses of the Richmond Food Mart, Papa John’s Pizza, and China One. Awaam Urgent Care Clinic, and Wall Street Village, a new subdivision, with homes being built at a quick pace, has recently joined Beat 11.

This month I met with John, who is a resident of Wall Street Village. John said he had noticed several vehicles parked way too far into street and some blocking the sidewalks. I let John know that I would start driving the subdivision at the beginning of my shift and informed residents they cannot block the sidewalk and needed to park within 18 inches from the curb. That day I asked around fifteen residents to readjust their vehicles. Most of them were not aware their vehicles were illegally parked. Over the past few weeks, I have only had to address a few parking violations, most of which were contractors or guests.  

I then spoke with Houston, who is also a resident of Wallstreet Village. I informed Houston that I was his Beat Officer and explained the purpose of Beat Contacts. Houston said he didn’t have any city or police questions at the time. Houston was given a business card and asked to contact me if he should have any questions or concerns in the future.  

This month, Walmart theft calls for service were 88% lower than October 2024.
