Special concerns addressed/individuals contacted:


As evidenced by the above compiled statistics, The Buffalo Police Department's Housing Unit continues
to focus it's efforts to the areas in and around the B.M.H.A. properties. In all areas of regulation the officer's
cpllOOJ'*8\t~:tst-i/:.~illlilal:.!cwk~i~l:caw~~~ti~ful:~~Re::rm;~m
~. This illustrates an above
baseline amount of service that would be delivered had the Housing Unit not have been dedicated to the
B.M.H.A. properties. Left to routine patrol, the Districts would not be able to dedicate or concentrate
efforts in this manner.
One area where this is evidenced is that~S'f'~'lie~~~~~mnde~~he.olW.it.~~~otYhia.fii.M!ep:M
,mdaimJ~~r;Nl~l!ll'\1!EPJrofl~Y All of these vehicles were impounded in association witutli~~~~
o er
s. Statistically, (3)
out of (4) of all vehicles impounded were in the targeted areas, demonstrating an above baseline level of
service. District personal would not be able to provide this level of dedication and service.
Many of the above impounds were made possible by the use of department authorized
roadblocks/checkpoints. During this reporting period roadblocks were carried out at Suffolk and Oakmont
near the Langfield Homes, Best and Fillmore near Schwab Homes, Hertel and Jasper Parish, and on E.
Ferry in fi.ont of Donovan Drive Complex. These were completed with the assistance of the Strike Force
Unit which is comprised of officers from the B.P.D ., E.C.S.D., and the New York State Police. These
roadblocks are an above baseline service to the B.M.H.A. as the Districts do not have the time or manpower
to carry out such endeavors.
~'
A significant anest was made by the Unit as
neighboring the Donovan Drive complex, was
as(!. fugitive from Denver,
on weapons and
dangerous drugs charges. The individual did attempt to hide his identity from officers as he did not wish to
be detected and returned to face the charges.
Officers debrief each arrest on drug related charges and attempt to obtain info. regarding drug sales on
B.M.H.A. properties. This practice consistanly nets results as evidenced above. It is my belief that the
blatant drug/weapons activity is being suppressed by the officers vigorous vehicle and traffic enforcement.
