Join
the
Citizens On Patrol ...
The Mountain Home
Citizens On Patrol started with just four members in
1994 and in time grew to as many as forty. While membership numbers
may fluctuate, the program is still able to get patrols out to
assist as additional eyes and ears for the police and in our
community. Currently, the Mountain Home
Citizens On Patrol has five marked cars equipped with
two way radio and top lights so that they can assist with traffic
control, funeral escorts, assist air ambulance service, vacation
watch request and other details as directed.
In an effort to keep you informed, we
have added the
City Ordinances as it pertains to law enforcement.
Specifically they relate to Parking, Traffic Regulation, Animal
Control and many others.
In the coming weeks we will be reminding
residents about unlicensed or inoperable vehicles on city streets as
well as trailers, campers and boat trailers that can not be left on
the street longer that 72 hours.
If you have any questions, contact Sgt.
Rick Viola at 208-587-2101 ext. 213.
