If you have an issue or concern affecting your neighborhood, you may contact the police captain for your area.
Sector Captains
Do you have an issue affecting your neighborhood? Contact the sector captain for your area! A captain is assigned to each of three geographical sectors -- North, South and West -- and is ultimately responsible for issues taking place in their sector. To identify the sector captain for your neighborhood, please refer to the sector captain map. Read the latest Sector Captain Newsletter, "Sector Watch", here.
Do not contact the sector captains to report crimes or incidents in progress. To report a crime, please call 911 for emergencies or NORCOM non-emergency at 425-577-5656. You may also report many crimes online.
