NYPD Scooter Presence Returns To Roosevelt Island, But Just For The Day - January/ February Monthly Public Safety Incident Blotter Too

We learned last week:

that Roosevelt Island's only assigned NYPD officer would no longer be patrolling our Island and that another NYPD officer would not be assigned as a replacement.

So, I was surprised to see two NYPD scooters parked on Main Street in Southtown today. Did the 114th NYPD Precinct Commander have a change of mind and decide to replace the departing Roosevelt Island officer with new officers?

Unfortunately, the answer is no. The officers were assigned to Roosevelt Island today as part of the security presence due to President Obama'a visit in NYC today.

Below are the Roosevelt Island January and February 2011 Public Safety Blotters which report in greater detail the type of incidents which the Public Safety Department and NYPD, when called upon, respond to.

January Public Safety Blotter

It would be helpful for all Roosevelt Island residents to have access to the specific information contained in the Monthly Blotter on a more timely basis than every month or so. Perhaps RIOC and Public Safety can provide this information on a weekly basis. Unfortunately, the Daily Public Safety Reports do not contain any specificity regarding the time, place, or seriousness of any particular incident.
