About Community Councils
The New York City Police Department Community Councils have been in operation since 1943. Today, there is a Council in each of the city's precincts.
Each Council, which generally meets on a monthly basis, provides the community with an opportunity for direct communication with the Precinct's Commanding Officer and other key police personnel in order to enhance relations between the police and the community, to promote NYPD programs, to initiate Council-sponsored programs and events that enhances public safety and the quality of life in the community, and to recruit broad and diverse community participation in the Council.
All members of the public are welcome to attend and actively participate in monthly Council meetings.
Anyone from the community, 18 years of age or older, may become an official member of the Community Council in order to vote on official Council business, elect officers of the Council, or run for Council office. An individual may vote as a member of the Council after attending three (3) or more regular meetings within the twelve (12) month period prior to a meeting when elections or official business may be conducted.

It's great that this blog has been created, and I generally and heartily applaud the job being done by the 70th precinct. I'm sorry I am unable to attend the next council meeting this month even though I would very much like to.
To say what I would have said then, there has been some commotion on my block in past weeks due to a series of all night parties at the temple at 83 Marlborough Road. These events in and of themselves are fine, but they tend to spill out into Marlborough Road at 2 or 3 in the morning and there is not infrequent public drinking and much noise that sometimes goes on for hours. Since this is usually on a Saturday night I'm sure there is much else going on in the 70th that deserves priority attention, but it would be nice if someone showed up when called if only to calm things down and encourage the revelers to disperse.
Hey Jonathan,
Lots of things brewing apparently with the 70th. I have been asked by some if you post comments. Are there some comments you have not posted? Is that not what this is for?

Hi Nathan,
As you can see from our other posts, I post all comments. The officers of the Community Council chose to moderate comments in order to avoid unpleasant things like spam, non-70th Precinct content, unsolicited advertisements and so forth.
So tell those who have been asking you that they are free to post comments on whatever they would like.
Can we get someone from either the Community Council or the Precinct itself to post some information regarding the recent incident at Argyle and Cortelyou Rds? There have been a number of posts on other websites and neighborhood listserves, some with conflicting information and it isn't exactly clear what happened.
I think its clear there was a stabbing, but was it a random act, a mugging of some sort, a fight between acquaintances, etc?
Some postings indicated that there were two suspects and only one has been caught. Is this true?
Does the Precinct think this indicates a rise in violent crime in the area, or it was an isolated incident?
Thanks.
The best option is to come to our next Community Council meeting on Wednesday, October 29th. There, you can speak with officers from the 70th Precinct as well as Deputy Inspector Monteforte in order to inquire further about this incident and what that means for crime in the community at large.
