Home Safe Home visits Olivine
You've heard of "Home Sweet Home." But how bout "Home Safe Home?"
Home Safe Home is one of our community services initiatives. We crunch the numbers and figure out which communities need to be reminded to lock their doors and bring any valuables inside. Earlier this week, Officer Picotte and Officer Torres were at Olivine in the Township. While the number of stolen vehicles here in Coconut Creek is down slightly compared to this time last year, Olivine led the city in first quarter (January- March) auto thefts with 4. All of them were left unlocked with a with a key fob possibly in it.
The officers talked to Olivine residents as they arrived home from work, giving some of them our crime prevention brochures. It's important to remember to lock your cars at night so that thieves aren't rewarded for visiting your neighborhood and it'll be "home safe home" for everybody.

The City of Coconut Creek charges $60 per hour (minimum of 3 hours) to have a uniformed officer with marked patrol vehicle cover a detail. On national holidays, the charge is $75 per hour (same minimum). Details should be requested as soon as possible to help ensure coverage. Anytime a request is for 4 or more officers, one of the officers will be at a supervisor rate of $70 per hour. If a supervisor is needed on a holiday, the rate will be $90 per hour. For traffic related only details, whenever a police officer is not available, a police service aide can also work the detail. The vendor will be notified prior to the detail and can decline the police service aide if wanted. The City does not guarantee all details will be covered, but will make every effort to schedule an officer for your event. Once your request has been received, the Detail Coordinator will contact you to confirm. The Detail Officer for Event form is available and should there be any questions, you will be contacted.
