The Zone 5 Public Safety Council meets on the second Tuesday of most months to discuss public safety issues and updates from throughout Zone 5. Residents attend to share information, trends, and successes from their communities; supply the Zone 5 officers in attendance with tips and emerging problems from their neighborhoods; and learn from Zone 5 officers and guest speakers so that they may inform their neighbors, blockwatches, and community groups. The details of the January meeting are as follows: Tuesday, January 14th 7:00pm Union Project, 801 N. Negley Ave Special guest: Raymond DeMichiei, City of Pittsburgh, Office of Emergency Management and Homeland Security Deputy Director DeMichiei will speak about how residents can be trained to form Community Emergency Response Teams (CERT). At the January meeting, we will also be electing members to serve as President and Secretary. Per the recently amended by-laws, in order to be eligible to vote or to run for a position on the Zone 5 Public Safety Council, one must be a resident of Zone 5, have completed a registration form, and attended three meetings in the prior (2013) calendar year. We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday.
