Alderman Neighborhood Walk
The District 7 Milwaukee Police Department, Department of Neighborhood Services  and Department of Public Works took advantage of an opportunity to head out with Alderman Ashanti Hamilton on an Alderman walk this last week. The team began right off of Teutonia Avenue and Lincoln Creek Parkway. Sunshine and cooler temperatures welcomed the team as they met with residents and addressed their concerns.
City of Milwaukee residents have utilized these walks to bring resources into their communities and collaborate with public services to address their concerns. If you are interested in having an Alderman walk in your area click on this LINK to find the Alderman for your area and contact them to set one up. As the weather continues to warm up, keep an eye out for these walks in your area.

 There has been an increase in the same type of garage burglaries in District Seven within the last month. For many of our residents their garage access is thru an alley rather than a driveway. Garages that abut an alley generally make an easier target because cars can freely pull up to them, alleys are not as well lit as streets and there is a distance between the garage and the house. Just like your house, there are many valuable items in your garage that thieves want. These are our most proven crime prevention tips for your garage. More information...

Community Prosecution Unit Contacts
|
|
Community Prosecution Units (CPUs) exist in all seven police districts across the City of Milwaukee. Each unit consists of, but is not limited to, an assistant district attorney located directly in the district, support staff, and several police officers. These teams use long-term, proactive collaboration amongst multiple interested parties to solve problems, improve public safety, and enhance the quality of life for community members. Partners include the prosecutor’s office, law enforcement, public and private organizations, community and faith-based organizations, and the community at large. The CPU works in areas of nuisance abatement, law enforcement intelligence sharing, targeted investigations of major violators, and district-level case review.
