A message from your precinct CAO’s regarding recent events:
In an Emergency or to report suspicious activity call 911 | To report a crime or non-emergency 602-
On September 18, 2024, an armed robbery occurred in the area of 2200 West Heatherbrea Drive (Mountain View Precinct) where the suspects robbed the victim at gunpoint, taking a small quantity of cash. The Cactus Park Precinct’s Real-Time Operations Center personnel located the two suspects as they crossed the I-17 traveling west. This information was shared with responding officers who coordinated their approach and contacted these individuals. Both suspects were safely apprehended and found to be in possession of firearms. Great work and coordination by the Real-Time Operations Center personnel and our patrol teams!
On September 23, 2024, Real-Time Operations Center specialists were alerted to an out-of-state stolen Audi A7 travelling along 35th Avenue. Researching the stolen vehicle, RTOC specialists learned the suspects were possibly armed. As they continued to monitor field technology the specialists located the vehicle parked at a business in the area of 35th Avenue/Indian School Road. The location was relayed to responding patrol and K-9 officers who collaborated on an apprehension plan. As the vehicle left the business it was grappled and stopped a short distance away. The occupants were safely apprehended and found to be in possession of a firearm. Great coordination by our Real-Time Operations Center specialists and our responding patrol and K-9 teams!
The City of Phoenix is ready to launch the community survey. This survey asks questions on a wide range of topics around life in our community—from what residents think is working, to where they see a need for improvement—providing feedback that is used to calculate ongoing satisfaction scores. The survey is one more way to gather information from residents in our effort to more holistically understand neighborhood issues and enhance our responsiveness to community priorities.
The survey takes less than five minutes to complete and is available in both English and Spanish. The survey system sets response targets based on Census data to ensure community representation. Survey responses will be anonymous.
The survey is served up to residents on various websites and social media platforms. Residents can also respond to the survey directly with this link.
We’ve also created a survey landing page on Phoenix.gov to answer questions, including the security and privacy of the survey.
Appointment-Based Bulk Trash Collection
Phoenix’s bulk trash collection program is changing to an appointment-based system starting September 30, 2024. With the new program, customers will be able to select collection dates available for their address. Each household is allowed up to 4 pickups per year. The new program will provide solid waste fee-paying customers a convenient way to get bulk trash removed. It will help reduce blight in neighborhoods and prevent trash from piling up during Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year’s holidays. Appointment-based collection will replace quarterly collection beginning on September 30, 2024.
Seeking Public Input on Two Policy Revisions
The Phoenix Police Department is looking for feedback on revisions to “The Standards of Public Trust” and “Prohibition of Retaliation” policies.

So, just what is the 9PM Routine?
The “9PM Routine” is a social media campaign created in 2017 by a Sheriff’s Office in Florida. The campaign was created to educate community members about best safety practices, and help the Sheriff’s department achieve its goal to reduce preventable crimes. The 9PM Routine typically includes tips such as: remove valuables from your car, lock your car, turn on outside lights, and lock up your home. Since its origination, the 9pm Routine has been adopted by law enforcement agencies all over the U.S and continues to provide value to communities by raising awareness and providing simple prevention tips.
