Over the past couple of months, several of our neighbors have been active coordinating a Neighborhood Watch program with the support of the Apex Police Department.
The Apex Police Department Neighborhood Watch program focuses on each of us getting to knowing our neighbors and reporting when things are outside of the norm. They have suggested a three-step plan with key requirements to get a neighborhood watch going.

Step 2 – Contact your local law enforcement agency, discuss boundaries and obtain guidelines. This has been done.
