The Sacramento Police Department remains committed to protecting our business community during these unique times.  In addition to increased patrols, and amending dispatch procedures for business burglary alarms, SPD has also created an online business registry.  This registry will help streamline the communication process between business partners and their area command staff so that we are able to address their specific needs.  Also, through this communication process, area command staff can easily provide updated information about prevention strategies and crime trends.

The following measures will also continue to be implemented for our business community:

• Increased patrols, especially in nighttime hours, throughout the City.
• Redeployment of specialized units to provide additional protection to critical infrastructure including business corridors, hospitals and shopping centers.
• All business burglary alarms are now entered as a call for service to be dispatched- even if a responsible party cannot be reached.

Following the county-wide Stay at Home Order issued on March 19th, the Sacramento Police Department initially identified a slight upward trend in business burglaries which is in line, with nationwide trends.  However, during the past two weeks both business burglaries and incidents of vandalism have declined.  Please follow the link below to view these statistics:
