A new VCPD community station opened on Wharf Street at VC Port, open every day from 7 a.m. to 11 p.m. It is the first station the department has opened in fifteen years.
Residents can walk in to file a report, pick up a copy or meet their neighborhood officers. The station also has a youth room run with the Wharf Street Boys and Girls Club, and a base for the bike patrol that covers the marinas and the cruise terminals.
The port district has grown faster than any other part of the city. The people who live and work here asked for officers they can see and talk to. Now they are around the corner.
The station hosts a community meeting with the district commander on the first Thursday of every month, at 6:30 p.m.
