West Meadowbrook Neighborhood Association

Please report to the police Department and to the store Mngrs. EVERY TIME you experience panhandlers in our neighborhoods...... It is illegal to panhandle in ''OUR'' City.

Please post your experiences with this type of behavior while you were at one of our local establishments. Thanks

Panhandlers

I have been approached more at the McDonalds and at CVS than anywhere else, but must admit that I don't shop the area all that much. Wonder if we could/should send a neighborhood letter to both those companies about how we feel. They should be running the panhandlers off the property or calling the police to do it.

Sending letters re: Panhandlers

I think sending a letter to ALL the businesses in the Oakland Corners area and beyond, maybe Edgewood to Ayers.

I don't know if it would be possible, but it would be more powerful if WMNA, Eastside Sector Alliance and the East F.W. Bussiness Assc. could create a letter to send to each business and let them know that we are asking for their cooperation and will back them if they help us. Also send a copy of the letters to the Police Department and let them be aware.

This way it will be know that there are many eyes watching. We can make a difference if we all work together. It is possible to clean it up!

What number should we call?

Is there a specific non-emergency number we call for pan handlers?
Thanks!
