District Attorney Kamala Harris and Chief Assistant DA Russ Giuntini addressed 140 Middle Polk and Lower Polk Neighbors on crime abatement efforts in our neighborhood. The Golden Gateway Holiday Inn graciously donated a meeting room to the Lower Polk and Middle Polk organizations to hold the event.
Extra attention and extra efforts of support were announced (such as borrowing current high tech equipment from the Dept. ef Justice for use by Sergeant Vanderbilt of Central Station for prostitution abatement Efforts) for our neighborhoods. The DA and Chief Assistant DA committed to paying close attention to quality-of-life crimes, understanding that they lead bigger issues and crimes. They want to partner with us in our efforts. It was a great demonstration of how citizens and our officials can work together to make significant improvements in our daily lives.
