What do our residents think?
The PD is doing really good. I appreciate the fact I was called and kept informed of the progress of my case.
The responding officer was great and thorough with the information she provided. My only complaint was not receiving any kind of follow-up regarding the case.
The dispatcher got units out here quickly and everyone involved knew how to handle the difficult situation very well. I had a hard time handling that specific situation, but everyone involved with the call did an awesome job from the dispatchers to the officers. I was very impressed.
I'd rate the dispatcher at a 9 or a 10. The dispatcher did great and they got EMS and FD out here.
Animal Control arrived quickly and took care of the problem.
Detective Allen was very thorough, kept me informed and continued to follow up with me. I am very pleased.
Very professional even with dealing with me. No problems with APPD at all.
The dispatcher was very polite and prompt. I appreciate everything the department does and everything was excellent and perfect.
I would give him a 20 if I could. Det. Allen responded quickly and recovered my property.
