Heading out of town? The Moraga Police Department now offers residents an on-line service for requesting a "Vacation House Watch." Got cause for alarm? You can also make a "Patrol Request."
"If you are leaving your home for any length of time, or have a problem in your neighborhood that warrants special attention, simply fill out the form(s) on-line and press 'submit,'" says Moraga Police Chief Bob Priebe. "You will receive a confirmation email that we received your request."
To access this service, Moraga residents can go to http://police.moraga.ca.us/links.php. The forms are listed at the bottom of the page under the heading "Forms."
"We've had already a handful of demands for vacation house watch since we put the forms online a few days ago," added Priebe at the beginning of the month.
Email your suggestions for how the Police Department can further improve its website to police@moraga.ca.us.
