Traveling for Spring Break? Register for Special Property Checks
Under the special checks program, DPS officers check the exterior of registered properties for signs of criminal activity or security breaches at peak travel times during Thanksgiving, Spring and Winter Breaks. SPRING BREAK – March 1 to March 9, 2024
The program is available at no charge to all residents in the Penn patrol zone, bounded by 30th Street to 43rd Street and from Baltimore Avenue to Market Street.
Students, faculty, and staff who live in the patrol zone are encouraged to register their residence using the link below. Be sure to list your contact information, other occupants, landlord if applicable, vacancy dates, scheduled repairs, and someone other than a landlord with access or a key to the property.
Penn Police will periodically check the exterior of registered properties, for signs of criminal activity or security breaches during the break. Special checks can not be provided for interior areas of apartment complexes.
Remember to close and lock all doors and windows before you leave, and arrange for packages to be delivered elsewhere while you are away.
