information from West Seattle Blockwatch

This will be our first West Seattle Block Watch Captains’ Network meeting of the new year, as well as the beginning of our 8th year as an organization.

Our invited guest is Officer Todd Wiebke, Community Police Team (CPT) Officer from the SW Precinct. He works on the homeless camp issues in our community. Some of you may have seen posts he has written about some of the challenges.

Note: We learned late this week that Officer Wiebke has been asked to help with a large homeless camp in another precinct, so he may not be able to attend our meeting after all, but he’ll try. We’ll post an update when we get an update from him.
If he isn’t able to attend, we’ll have extra time to discuss other issues and topics, ask additional questions of SW Precinct leaders, and catch up on crime/safety issues that have come up in our neighborhoods since our last meeting.
