DETALLES: The Oxnard Police Department partnered once again with California Lutheran University to administer a Community Survey to assess and evaluate public safety perceptions, interactions, servicio, and experiences. Like its 2010 predecessor, this survey used an academic scientific method to obtain a representative sample from our city population. Every neighborhood in Oxnard – north, south, east, and west – was surveyed, and the survey was available in both English and Spanish.

The survey instrument and data collection instructions were created to provide a representative sample of our diverse community and population. The steps for data collection as designed by Dr. Jamshid Damooei, Co-Director of the Center for Leadership & Values at the Cal Lutheran University School of Management, ensured that every household in Oxnard had the same chance of being a respondent. The Oxnard Police Community Survey and data collection instructions help yield a 3% margin of error and a confidence level of 99%.

“It is important to continuously evaluate and assess our job and service to the community. The data we collected provides valuable information from the public on police services, and allows for us to see longitudinal changes in survey themes since the last survey was administered, and further informs our priorities moving forward,” said Jeri Williams, Oxnard Chief of Police.

As Professor Damooei presented at tonight’s Oxnard City Council meeting (Octubre 28, 2014), the Oxnard Police is confident that the survey proved to be an objective means to determine the community’s perception of police services, and will provide the Department with the ability to assess how we can continue to further our Department’s Mission Statement: La protección de nuestra Comunidad con un servicio excepcional.

The entire survey report is available on-line at the Oxnard Police Department website: http://www.oxnardpd.org/documents/2014survey.pdf

PREPARADO POR:	Alex Arnett, Sargento
PERSONA DE CONTACTO & INFORMACIÓN DE CONTACTO:	Enrique Alvarez, Detective de robo de automóviles enrique.alvarez@oxnardpd.org, 805-385-7605

DETALLES:En el mes de diciembre 2014, la Ciudad de Oxnard experimentó un 30% aumentar de vehículos robados en toda la ciudad. En diciembre 2013, la Ciudad de Oxnard tenía 63 vehículos robados en comparación a diciembre 2014 en el que tuvimos 82 vehículos robados.

It appears the increase is due to the colder weather and people leaving the vehicle engine running. Oxnard Police have found that of all vehicles being stolen, 25% are due to individuals leaving their vehicles parked, unattended, and with the engine running.

In the weeks ahead, Oxnard Police officers will be enforcing a City of Oxnard ordinance which states that no one is to leave a car running unattended. La $65.00 citation will be placed on vehicles that are left running unattended and the keys to the vehicles will be taken to the Oxnard Police Department, at which time the owner of the vehicle will have to come to the police department to retrieve their car keys.

Below are tips to assist with preventing vehicle thefts.

• Do not leave your keys in your car, Encendido o apagado. If your car is left on to warm up, stay with your car. Your car can easily be taken if you are not there to watch it.

• Make sure to lock your vehicles, use an anti-theft device if available, and do not leave spare keys in the vehicle.

• Do not leave any valuable items in your car. These items are a temptation for someone to break your window and steal your property.

• Make note of suspicious persons and vehicles (including license plates). Dispatchers will ask for this critical information to better assist responding officers.

• Do not park in dark alleys or areas with low-light. Park in well-lit areas – in a garage, si es posible.

Oxnard Police encourages our community to immediately report any suspicious activity. Llamada 911 o (805) 385-7740 desde cualquier teléfono. Spanish translators are available for Spanish speaking individuals who call to report a crime.

Persons with additional information on any auto theft related incidents are encouraged to call the Oxnard Police Department Detective Enrique Alvarez, Detective Rocky Marquez or Senior Officer Buttell at (805) 385-7650.
