The East Atlanta Security Patrol (“EASP”) is an effort by the East Atlanta Community Association, Inc. ("EACA") to enhance safety in East Atlanta. Specifically, off-duty Zone Six Police Officers will be hired to perform additional patrols within Beat 610, which is the police designation for the East Atlanta community, beyond those presently being performed by the police. The amount of time that the officers shall patrol will be determined by the level of support from the community in terms of membership. Since more members mean more patrol hours, we encourage you to share this information with your neighbors and East Atlanta business owners. You may sign-up anytime, and your service will begin on the first of the next month, which is February 1, 2009.
In addition to the general benefit of having additional police patrols at the time they are most needed, members shall receive the following services as part of their membership:
Expedited Alarm Response
Officers will respond as soon as possible to burglar alarm calls
Enhanced Police Patrol Services
Officers will check member locations as often as practicable
Out of Town Check for Residential Members
Officers will visit the member household and if possible perform an inspection on foot
Indicia of Membership
All members will receive an EASP sign
