Police keep Neighborhood Impact Unit at Court Street post
The Police Department will not relocate the six member Neighborhood Impact Unit from Court Street to Broad Street. Chief Rodger Griffith said the unit could grow and will stay put to preserve effectiveness amid ongoing crime deterrence in Wilkes Villa and nearby areas.

The unit, created after a 0.25 percent income tax approval last year, has accounted for over half of the department’s felony arrests this year.
