Problem Oriented Policing (POP)
The Fresno Police Department's Problem
Oriented Policing (POP) Program is one of the main
components of the community-based policing. It was
established to "decriminalize" a specific target
area. This program utilizes assistance from other
city departments, public and private sector
providers, community organizations, business,
schools, property owners, and residents to remove
the criminal element and stabilize the area. The
program identifies target areas based on the number
of calls for service or evidence that criminal
activity is occurring. For more information, call
your District Policing Office at the number listed
above.

Care Fresno
Care Fresno is an extension of Problem Oriented
Policing (POP). It is the intent of the Care Fresno
Program to prevent criminal elements from returning
to neighborhoods. Care Fresno builds partnerships
with local schools, churches and businesses for the
purpose of training volunteers and developing
resources to promote programs that will help restore
and maintain safe neighborhoods.
Programs include reading/tutoring centers,
recreational activities, job training, ESL classes
and parenting classes. For more information about
this program contact the Care Fresno office at
244-0105.
Signs
Signs play a vital role in identifying businesses.
However, signs which are abandoned, illegal, or block
publick rights-of-way, have a blighting influence on the
City. If you want more information regarding our
existing sign ordinance, please call 621-8400.
Street Flooding
Heavy rain brings much needed water to our beautiful
valley. Sometimes it fills our streets and roadways so
that passage is difficult. Regarding urban drainage
problems call the Fresno Metropolitan Flood Control
District at 456-3292. To report illegal dumping into the
storm drainage system call 456-3292.
Streetlights
Is
the streetlight burning brightly? Or is it flickering?
Is it burned out? Did you know that it actually saves
money to replace a flickering streetlight before the
bulb burns out? Report flickering and burned out
streetlights, as well as malfunctioning traffic signals
by calling the Traffic Signals and Streetlights Section
at 621-1492.

or trash in the street, please call the Street
Maintenance Division at 621-1492.
Tires
It
is unlawful to store or dump tires on residential or

To help solve this problem please remember to leave
your old tires with you dealer!
