Township council approved signs for the Wildberry Road neighborhood watch at its April 15 meeting, where councilman David Willard said that the program–while still in its infancy–is working the way it’s supposed to.

Willard’s neighborhood was the first to start a neighborhood watch, and he said that when some “very minor activity” occurred recently, it was reported to police by the block watch captain as per protocol.

“The point is, the system works,” he said.

Lower Saucon Township’s neighborhood watch program is coordinated by police officer Kyle Haggerty.

Residents who organize a group are responsible for paying for the signs in their neighborhood.
