Innovative Prevention Program Provides Alternative for Low-Level Drug Offenders District Attorney Kevin Steele. "Our hope is that this program will save young people from going down that path and protect their futures."

Pilot Program of Township Police And County District Attorney's Office The Lower Providence Township Police Department and the Montgomery County District Attorney's Office formed the Drug Education and Abuse Prevention program (D.E.A.P.) in March of 2017. D.E.A.P. is a pilot program for 18 to 26 year olds arrested for minor drug charges. The voluntary program is for non-violent offenders and utilizes various strategies to deter defendants from escalated drug use and the more serious arrests that often accompany drug addiction. Eligible offenders are those who are arrested for simple possession of narcotics or paraphernalia who have not been previously arrested. Exceptions may be made for offenders with prior convictions for underage drinking or other minor offenses. The goal of the program is to target the symptomatic issues of prolonged drug use and the inherent crimes committed to support that habit. The elements of the D.E.A.P. program are: An introductory meeting with LPPD Lieutenant Mike Jackson, Deputy District Attorney Samantha Cauffman and Magisterial District Judge Cathleen Rebar A drug and alcohol assessment as well as a presentation on drug use and addiction from professionals in the addiction field and recovering drug abusers

A presentation on the medical consequences of drug use by the Montgomery County Coroner's Office Court observation of current cases at the Montgomery County Drug Court Participants must remain drug and arrest free during all phases of the program and for six months following the completion of all elements Participants are subject to random drug testing while in the D.E.A.P. program "The drug epidemic we are facing is widespread across Montgomery County and overdose deaths are growing. We cannot simply arrest our way out of this epidemic. Fighting it requires innovative approaches on multiple fronts to try to stem the progression from low-level drug use to heroin use and a potential overdose down the road," said Montgomery County

While participating in the program, the criminal case will be suspended to allow for successful completion. Participants will not be formally arrested, which means they will not be processed or fingerprinted so no criminal record will be created. A participant who successfully completes all phases as well as the probationary period will not face any criminal charges. Failing to complete any element of the program will result in their arrest for the initiating case with full prosecution to follow. Lower Providence Township Police Chief Stanley Turtle stated, "Our hope is to provide at-risk young adults with the knowledge and desire to avoid future drug use or drug addiction and any consequences that will follow." Twenty-one offenders have been accepted into the program with eight completing the educational phase to date. Unfortunately, seven participants have been dismissed from the program for continued drug use or failing to comply with program requirements and now face prosecution for their offenses. Feedback from participants and their families has been extremely positive. The department offers best wishes to all those involved in the program as we strive to mitigate drug use and the lasting ill effects on our community.

Flood Barriers Provide Extra Layer of Protection Permanent telescoping floodgates will be installed at the intersection of Level and Arcola Roads, an area prone to flooding. When travel poses a threat to public safety, the gates will lowered to close the roadway. Unlike traditional barriers, the gates cannot be moved or bypassed, keeping motorists from driving into flooded areas and eliminating dangerous water rescues.

The gates look similar to rail-crossing gates and manually extend up to 50' long. They are permanently mounted on a concrete base for rapid deployment. One person can easily deploy the gate by lowering or swinging the gate across the roadway in seconds. The gate's flashing lights have a mercury switch to activate the lights when the gate is deployed.

"The main reason we chose this location is because it's where we've experienced a fatality due to flooding and people avoiding the temporary flood barriers," said Police Chief Stanley Turtle.

In addition, signs have been installed to give motorists advance warning of the approaching road closure. These permanent signs are hinged, allowing them to be closed during normal conditions and readily opened when the roadway is closed.

Report, Track Power Outages We encourage you to visit PECO's website to see the various options available to you for reporting and tracking power outages. Simply go to www.peco.com and click "Outages". From there you can see how to report an outage online as well as "check my outage status" or "view outage map" if you have already reported it by phone.

The photo shows a barrier gate similar to the ones being installed in the Township.

Report Suspicious Activity

We're all part of a community and we share everyday moments with our neighbors, colleagues, family, and friends. It's easy to take for granted the routine moments in our every day. But your every day is different than your neighbor's - it's filled with the moments that make it uniquely yours. So if you see something you know shouldn't be there or someone's behavior doesn't seem quite right, say something. Because only you know what's supposed to be in your every day. Informed, alert communities play a critical role in keeping our community safe. Report crime and drug information to police@lowerprovidence.org, 610-539-3195

Reduce the Chance of a Vehicle Break-In

The vast majority of vehicle break-ins have one thing in common....unlocked car doors! Remember - lock your vehicle and keep valuables out of sight. Criminals scout for opportunities, looking for purses, computer bags, smartphones, tablets, etc. that can be seen from through the window of a vehicle. Make sure these valuables are not visible. And once you've stashed electronic devices, make sure all telltale accessories that tip off intruders - like power plugs, adapters and navigation-system windshield suction-cup mounts - are out of sight as well.

Stop by and see us at the Township's 30th annual Fall Festival on Saturday, Oct. 7. LPPD will be displaying a patrol vehicle, provide a K9 demonstration and handouts will be available.

Friend our Facebook page and watch for the next "Coffee with a Cop" date. It's a great opportunity to come out and get to know your local police officers.

Stormwater Management

Fall is Here...

And with it comes the opportunity to improve your stormwater management practices on your property. Below are some fall projects you can implement at home: 1) Plant a tree! Fall is a perfect time for planting trees and shubs. Be sure to plant species native to Pennsylvania! 2) Prune your trees, shrubs and perennials. Fall is the best time to prune trees and the other plants in your yard. Pruning allows them to jump start their growth and utilize more stormwater. 3) Clear leaves and debris from gutters and install a rain barrel. After clearing debris from your gutters install a rain barrel at the end of your downspout. This will allow you to collect free rain water to wash your car or water your gardens!

Public Works Reminders Streets, Sidewalks & Snow: What You Need to Know The Public Works Department is dedicated to the safety of all of our residents. Snow removal is a tedious and time-consuming job and your patience during a snow/ice event is appreciated. Our crews are responsible for almost 90 miles of roads within the Township and they work many hours under very difficult conditions to keep motorists safe. Top priority during a snowstorm is keeping main roads open. It is almost impossible to keep snow from being deposited at driveways during plowing, so it's best to wait to shovel until the Township's finished plowing. If you do clear your driveway before the street is completed, put snow to the right so the plow can push the snow away from your driveway. Clearing an area on the side of the driveway from which the plow approaches will provide an area for the snow to unload before it reaches your driveway.

10

www.LowerProvidence.org

Remember that state and Montgomery County roads are cleared by their own crews. A list of these roads and contact information can be found on the Public Works page of the website, lowerprovidence.org. Township ordinance requires that a pathway on the sidewalk, at least 30 inches wide, be cleared within 48 hours after it stops snowing. Sidewalks should be covered with salt or similar materials in the event of ice or sleet. Please do not shovel or blow snow into the street. Keep vehicles off the street if off-street parking is available. Limit travel unless absolutely necessary.

Mailbox Damage It's possible that some residential mailboxes will suffer damage during a snowstorm. If damage is caused by snow or ice hitting the mailbox, or due to deteriorated materials, repair or replacement is the responsibility of the resident. If it is believed that the damage is the result of direct contact with a plow truck, please call the Public Works Department, 610-635-3525, after the storm has subsided and within 48 hours, and we will evaluate the damage to determine responsibility.

You can perform a valuable public service and protect yourself, your family and your neighbors by taking the responsibility for shoveling out and clearing any fire hydrants near your home during and after a snowstorm. In an emergency, every second matters. Fire hydrants that are blocked, concealed or difficult to access due to snow or ice can impede emergency fire response. Thank you for your support and cooperation.

Fire Prevention Week: Do You Have an Escape Plan? Putting Out a Call for Volunteers

Lower Providence Volunteer Fire Department is once again partnering with the nonprofit National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) to observe Fire Prevention Week, Oct. 8-14, 2017. Each year during Fire Prevention week, volunteers from Lower Providence Fire Company visit day cares and schools to spread the word about fire prevention. The week ends with a fun- filled open house, scheduled this year for Friday, Oct. 13 from 7:00 to 9:00 pm. at the main station, 3199 Ridge Pike, Eagleville. There will be demonstrations, displays, and fun for all ages. It is a great way to see the volunteer firefighters and the equipment that they use to protect our community. This year's Fire Prevention Week theme, "Every Second Counts: Plan 2 Ways Out!" works to better educate the public about the critical importance of developing a home escape plan and practicing it. In a typical home fire, you may have as

little as one to two minutes to escape safely from the time the smoke alarm sounds. "Developing and practicing a home escape plan is like building muscle memory," said Charles A. DeFrangesco, Lower Providence Township Fire Marshal. "That preplanning is what everyone will draw upon to snap into action and escape as quickly as possible in the event of a fire." In support of Fire Prevention Week, DeFrangesco encourages all households to develop a plan together and practice it. A home escape plan includes working smoke alarms on every level of the home, in every bedroom, and near all sleeping areas. It also includes two ways out of every room, usually a door and a window, with a clear path to an outside meeting place (like a tree, light pole, or mailbox) that's a safe distance from the home.

The LPFD is an all-volunteer organization that has been serving the Lower Providence community since 1945. If you are 14 or older and interested in becoming a firefighter, fire police officer, or junior firefighter, the Fire Department would like to meet with you and discuss the opportunities available. Individuals with or without prior fire service experience are needed and all necessary training will be provided. The best way to begin the application process is to stop by the Eagleville station at 3199 Ridge Pike around 7 pm on any Tuesday night. You can also call 610-539-5408 and leave a message.

School Is Open! A Back-to-School Lesson for Drivers

With school back in session, it's important for drivers to slow down and stay alert for school buses and pedestrians - especially before and after school. These tips will help motorists safely share the road: STOP

STOP

STOP

STOP

STOP

STOP

STOP

STOP

Don't block the crosswalk when stopped at a red light or waiting to make a turn, forcing pedestrians to go around you; this could put them in the path of moving traffic In a school zone when flashers are blinking, stop and yield to pedestrians crossing the crosswalk or intersection Always stop for a school patrol officer or crossing guard holding up a stop sign Take extra care to look out for children in school zones, near playgrounds and parks, and in all residential areas

SCHOOL IS OPEN

DRIVE SAFELY SCHOOL BUS

Never pass a bus from behind - or from either direction if you're on an undivided road - if it is stopped to load or unload children If the yellow or red lights are flashing and the stop arm is extended, traffic must stop The area 10 feet around a school bus is the most dangerous for children; stop far enough back to allow them space to safely enter and exit the bus

STOP

Be alert; children often are unpredictable, and they tend to ignore hazards and take risks

From the National Safety Council

PA School Bus Law All 50 states have a law making it illegal to pass a school bus that is stopped to load or unload children. School buses use yellow flashing lights to alert motorists that they are preparing to stop and red flashing lights with an extended stop sign arm to signal motorists that the bus is no longer moving and children are getting on or off the bus.

Every vehicle traveling on an undivided highway regardless of travel direction must stop when students are entering or exiting a school bus. In addition, vehicles following directly behind a school bus must stop at least 10 feet away upon the bus's activation of red flashing lights and the engagement of a stop arm. You should never move your

vehicle until the children have reached a place of safety. Penalty: If you are convicted of violating Pennsylvania's School Bus Stopping Law, you will receive all of the following penalties: 60-Day driver's license suspension Five (5) points on your driving record $250 fine Licensed and Insured PA 007975
