Celebrating My Local Valentines


I Love Yorba Linda’s Effective Law Enforcement

Orange County residents have a reason to become a little complacent about their safety, with so many cities within county borders ranking very high in safety for their size.  But behind every safe city is a well trained team of law enforcement professionals.  Yorba Linda is served by the renowned Orange County Sheriff, whose very disciplined and cooperative approach to public safety is something I will never take for granted.  Yesterday, Valentine’s Day, 2013, I raised a toast to the men and women who keep our amazing city safe; my family and I love you all and can’t thank you enough!

As the 13th city in Orange County to contract law enforcement with the Orange County Sheriff, Yorba Linda enjoys the experience of a peace keeping juggernaut with over 123 years of history.  Part of what makes the Sheriff’s Department so effective is its commitment to cooperation and interaction with the community.  Any problems, issues or concerns brought to the attention of the Sheriff are addressed quickly, deliberately and transparently (note the ‘More Accountability’ section of the Sheriff’s Pledge found on http://www.protectyorbalinda.org/sheriffsproposal.htm ).  A variety of services are available for Yorba Linda residents and businesses, all only a phone call away.

Of particular interest for those planning to make their home in Yorba Linda, and one of my central reasons for making the Sheriff’s Department my collective Valentine, is the Sheriff’s community-centric ‘Vacation Check Services’ which effectively allow for additional police presence around your home should you and your family be away for an extended period.  The service is very thorough, including all information of who has or does not have permission to be around your home.  Additionally, all information provided to the Sheriff will be kept absolutely private strictly for the protection of your home.  For more information regarding the Vacation Check Services, see http://www.ci.yorba-linda.ca.us/images/stories/pdf/Sheriff/Vacation_Check1.pdf or contact Yorba Linda Police Services at 714 779-7098.
