Police
Department Receives Safety Equipment from the League City
Citizens Police Academy Alumni Association
During their annual business meeting dinner the League City Citizen
Police Academy Alumni Association honored a League City Officer
and presented over three thousand dollars of safety equipment to
the department. Officer Gabe Gonzales was honored by the membership
for his four years of leadership as the coordinator for the program.
The Alumni Association members are strong supporters of the police
department. This year they purchased 30 traffic safety vests to protect
patrol officers while they direct traffic and investigate accidents.
They also purchased a hand-held bullet-resistant shield for the LCPD
SWAT Team. 
Volunteers
from the Alumni Association also assist the department by conducting
traffic surveys, entering pawn ticket information into
the police department computer, and conducting handicap parking enforcement.
The assistance they provide to the police department saves thousands
of dollars in overtime costs for events such as the Holiday in the
Park Parade and the Village Fair Parade.
Police
Chief Andrew Daniel said, “The services of the CPA
Alumni Association are invaluable to us.”
