Protect your home and car from criminal activity By: The Roseville Police Department Summer is upon us! There is no escaping the California sun, but we can certainly implement some of the following crime prevention tips to protect your home and vehicle from potential criminal activity. Vehicles: According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) one vehicle was stolen every 32 seconds in the United States in 2022. That amounted to more than one million vehicles, and half of the thefts were due to driver error. The summer months are the highest season for vehicle theft. Here’s what you can do to reduce your chances of becoming a victim of vehicle theft or break-in: Do not leave your vehicle(s) unattended with the engine running. Close and lock all windows. Take your key or fob with you. Never leave valuables in your vehicle in plain sight. Home: According to the U.S. Department of Justice most burglaries happen in the summertime between June and August. That’s the time period when many families go away for vacation. Being away from home for an extended period of time makes your home a target for thieves. According to the FBI, there are 2.5 million burglaries annually in the United States. That’s a break-in every 26 seconds. Going away on vacation? Here are some tips to reduce your chances of becoming a victim of a home burglary: If you’re going out of town, let trusted friends, neighbors, or family know you’ll be gone. Set up a Vacation House Check through the Roseville Police Department. Make sure to leave your home (e.g., windows, garage door, pet doors, etc.) locked and secured. Put your mail on hold with the US Post Office. Don’t post vacation photos on social media until you return home. If you have a home security system, make sure it is functioning and use it. The beginning of summer is when many of us start to entertain, visit family, and plan vacations. Summer is also the time when home burglaries and vehicle theft/break-ins are on the rise. Do your part to reduce the chances of being a crime victim this summer season. Incorporate crime prevention tips so you can sit back and enjoy the summer months, no matter what you plan to do.

If you see illegal fireworks being set off, don't call 9-1-1. Instead, call the non-emergency line (916-774-5000 ) unless there is an actual fire or medical emergency. Their 9-1-1 response is hurt by the overwhelming number of fireworks reports. You can also Report illegal fireworks through the myRSVL app on your phone or at Roseville.ca.us/myrsvl by submitting a service request. This does beg the question: What is illegal? Aerial fireworks are always illegal since they can create flying embers. Similarly those that dart across the ground or explode are considered illegal in California. Anything not of the "Safe and Sane" variety sold by various non-profit-staffed fireworks stands between June 28th -July 4th. You can tell if they are legal by the label. If the California State Fire Marshal's seal is not on the packaging, it's illegal. Any fireworks set off outside the June 28-July 4th period. Roseville has recently changed its municipal code to increase the legal and financial penalties for illegal fireworks. Each individual illegal firework counts as a separate offense. First offense: $750 fine, Each subsequent offense: $1,000 fine. Example: If you are caught with 3 illegal fireworks in your possession, the fine would be $2,750! Possession of illegal fireworks can now be cited as a criminal misdemeanor, not just an infraction. Individuals responsible for illegal fireworks can be charged the actual costs of emergency responses, in addition to fines, which typically run thousands of dollars. Penalties are now in place for owners, renters, and anyone hosting a gathering who knowingly allows the use or storage of illegal fireworks on their property.

How landscaping can enhance home security By: The Roseville Police Department During summer months many homeowners prepare for yard clean-up and landscaping projects. However, amidst the excitement of transforming outdoor spaces, it's crucial to consider how our landscaping choices can impact the safety of our homes. Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design (CPTED) offers valuable insights into enhancing home security through the physical design of our properties. By focusing on elements such as fencing, lighting, and plants, CPTED aims to identify and mitigate areas that may attract criminal activity. Unsafe landscaping can inadvertently create opportunities for crime, while safe landscaping helps deter burglars and thieves. Here's how you can transform your outdoor space into a safer environment: Enhancing visibility CPTED emphasizes the importance of increased visibility around properties to discourage criminal activity. When landscaping: Follow the 3-8 rule: Keep hedges no higher than three feet and tree canopies starting no lower than eight feet, especially around entryways and windows. Ensure outside lighting is adequate, with motion-sensing lights signaling to trespassers that they've been noticed. Maintain clear sightlines through windows facing streets, as they provide natural surveillance. Securing entry points Distinct points of entry deter criminals, as they prefer areas with low visibility. Enhance natural access control by: Ensuring front and back doors are clearly visible and well-lit. Using dense or thorny landscaping to reinforce fences and discourage unwanted entry. Demonstrating ownership Show ownership of your community by maintaining a well-kept property and engaging in community-building activities: Personalize your space with flower gardens and seasonal decorations to deter crime. Regular maintenance sends a message of vigilance and care, discouraging vandalism. Neighborhood Watch: Community Vigilance Form a Neighborhood Watch group to actively prevent crime in your area: Keep an eye out for unusual activity and report concerns promptly to the authorities. Download our Neighborhood Watch Starter Guide to get started today. By implementing these strategies and fostering community vigilance, homeowners can create safer neighborhoods for themselves and their neighbors. Let's work together to make our communities secure and thriving.

Calling 911 with no service: Is it possible? By: The Roseville Police Department The thought of needing emergency assistance but being unable to call due to a lack of phone service is undeniably frightening. When faced with an emergency, 911 is often the lifeline we rely on for help. But what happens when our phones show no bars? Can you still reach out to 911 without service? Surprisingly, the answer is yes. Despite having no network signal or a wireless calling plan, it is possible to make a successful call to 911. However, this comes with a caveat. While reaching emergency services is possible, the operator's ability to assist may be limited. So, how does one connect to 911 without any service when conventional phone functions fail? When you dial 911, your phone activates its emergency call function, sending a signal to the nearest cell tower regardless of your service provider. This ensures everyone has access to emergency services, directing your call to the closest emergency center for swift assistance. Contrary to popular belief, the absence of service bars does not necessarily mean you're entirely cut off from communication. While your device may not receive signals from your service provider's towers, it might still pick up signals from other providers in the area, enabling you to connect to 911. However, calling 911 without service does present challenges. The most significant issue is the inability to transmit your location to the 911 call center. If you cannot provide your precise location, responders may struggle to locate you swiftly. So, what can you do to improve your chances of reaching 911 in an emergency, especially if you're in an area with poor signal coverage? You can employ several strategies, such as reducing the distance to cell towers, refreshing your phone's signal by toggling airplane mode, or using signal boosters to enhance signal strength. Alternatively, if cellular service is unavailable, your phone may utilize Wi-Fi for emergency calls if it's accessible. Creating a Wi-Fi hotspot or connecting to an available network could be a viable option for contacting 911 when traditional cellular service is unavailable. However, in scenarios where no network coverage is available whatsoever, mobile phones become futile. This underscores the importance of alternative communication devices, such as satellite phones or radios, especially for individuals venturing into remote or isolated areas where traditional network coverage is non-existent. In conclusion, while calling 911 without service may seem daunting, it's reassuring to know that help is still within reach. By understanding how emergency calls function and taking proactive measures to improve signal reception, you can increase your chances of successfully reaching emergency services when needed most. Remember, in an emergency, every second counts.

Even in years with normal rainfall, they save water compared to traditional lawn-based landscaping because they naturally need less moisture year-round to look their best. In Roseville, we provide several water efficiency services. If you want to ditch your grass, consider our Cash for Grass program, where we rebate customers $1.50 per square foot of turf grass removed and replaced with water-efficient landscape up to $2,000 per address.
