3:41 am
because i do very much want to acknowledge captain alumni specifically formal reconstituting the carr value team when is dedicated to our neighborhood. the ocean view branch sets in a sketchy parrot of the randolph corridor. i found that the carr value team officers are very responsive to any problems i've had at the library. i want to point out that there was an 11-year-old boy who was a regular patron of our library and i became be sure that there were weapons in his back paxil and i found out bullets and a knife it was definitely dangerous. and i called the police and
3:42 am
asked for some help on how to handle this situations and i got an immediate response. and the officer who came by said he actually would like to receive this particular problem to one of his colleagues who had a lot more experience directly working with kids when i appreciated. when he came over and explained the situations he said he would go directly to the home of that boy and i told him i wasn't sure of the family situation but he was incest to the night of checking out the relationship with a single mother and whether or not to speak with her as well as the child.

3:45 am
possible. he's a very you modest person. he should pat himself open the back and the officers that work at terryville. one of the things he's down for me, i asked him if he could make the meetings and bring them to the o m i because going to the meetings i saw a couple of my neighbors who were able to get out there especially the seniors and he's made a commitment quarterly to bring them to the rec center and that's brought horrify at any time it's not a huge amount of people but made access to people who didn't have previousacss.
3:46 am
so i appreciate he took that to heart and previous captains - i'd asked every capita and they would come once a year by the captain comes quarterly. thank you for restating the terry value neighborhood team it's definitely restored some of the - there was a lot of anxieties in my community as after several shoovts there were low staffing and they were going to take them away but they were restated and i heard oh, from the community members they feel a lot better having them in the community. and lastly, i wanted to make sure i have the flyers for the
