We noticed several BPD cars apparently patrolling the area between 9th St. W and Tamiami Trail, bordered by 13th Ave. W and 17th Ave. W., on the evening of May 12. While you were in the neighborhood the number of annoying, badly-driven “boom boom” cars — and the open drug dealing often associated with them. — was noticably lower than usual.

Please come around more often. We truly appreciate your presence, especially when you’re out looking at (and listening to) the neighborhood to see what’s going and (and who’s doing what) instead of coming here only in response to calls.

Keep up the good work!
