April 2026

Beat #7 is both a commercial and residential area. The boundaries of Beat #7 are the residential blocks of Riveredge Dr. up to Damon St. Beat #7 also includes the small local businesses in the 100 – 300 block of US 90EB.

During the Month of April, I met with Amahi and her father, I introduced myself and informed them about the beats. Amahi stated that she has lived in Richmond for about a year and she rarely spends time home because she works a lot. Amahi stated that her father spends the most time at home and takes his dog for a walk around the neighborhood. I advise them to keep the dog on a leash as we have a city ordinance regarding this.

I also met with Guadalupe, one of our locals who I had not seen in a while. Guadalupe stated that he has been doing good staying out of trouble but hoping to move somewhere else soon.

Lastly, I met with Larry, Larry stated that he has lived at his house for 14 years. Larry stated that his wife has lived there longer as she bought the house back in 2000. Larry stated that his concern is that the streets in the area between Riveredge and Damon are really dark. Larry stated that besides that he has no other concern but he will flag me down if something comes up.

Goals Accomplished: Was able to have an actual conversation with one of my beat contacts without it being rushes.

Goals Next Month: My goal for the next month is to focus on traffic enforcement as I noticed that in the area is not lit enough and people often made traffic infractions.
