BLOCK PARTIES

The Urbandale Police Department encourages neighborhood block parties. This is an opportunity for citizens to get together with their neighbors and get to know each other better. The block parties are also a great way to build on relationships with each other to form a stronger neighborhood. A stronger neighborhood helps to deter crime, as well. Having a block party will allow the neighborhood to block off the street, allowing for an easier opportunity for kids to play and families to interact with each other.

In 2009, the police department began sending officers on duty out to these block parties to interact with the neighborhoods and citizens. The Urbandale Police Department is committed to reaching out to this community and the citizens within each neighborhood.

Please feel free to ask questions of these officers and submit any comments to Community Relations Officer Randy Peterson at 515-331-6804 or email.
