Welcome to the
Cheektowaga Police Department's Business Community page
specifically dedicated to the safety of business owners
in the Town of Cheektowaga. This page contains safety
tips specifically for businesses.

Upon
request, officers from the Crime Resistance Unit will
provide to business owners “Employee Safety”
Presentations; stressing the “Do’s and Don’ts” in
hostile or threatening situations. (i.e. unruly
customers, shoplifters, robberies)
·
CPTED
(Crime Prevention Through Environmental Design)
Presentations are made available to the Business
Community. These presentations feature the positive
aspects of lighting, landscaping, surveillance, and
natural access control in a business location
environment.
·
When
warranted, members of the Crime Resistance Unit interact
directly with the Business Community. This interaction
is in response to recent incidents and trends which
might have an impact on their establishment; contact is
made either in person or on the phone. Recently there
was a spike in prescription medication thefts, the CRU
made a concerted effort to contact area Veterinary
Hospitals, Dental Offices and Pharmacies alerting them
to this problem and precautionary prevention measures
they should employ.
·
Informational brochures covering a wide variety of crime
prevention topics are available upon request from the
Crime Resistance Unit (897-7293).
