The Yeadon Borough Council Caucus Meeting held on May 8, 2025, addressed several key topics concerning local law enforcement and community initiatives.
The meeting began with a report from the police department, highlighting that while the local police do not monitor opioid-related issues—managed by county constables—they do respond to 911 calls regarding disturbances. The department is currently at full staffing levels, with 20 full-time officers, including three new recruits who joined in March. However, the department anticipates a vacancy due to an upcoming retirement scheduled for August.
In addition to police updates, the council expressed gratitude to community members who participated in the Earth Day Spring Cleanup on April 19. This initiative focused on cleaning West Cobbs Creek, extending from the area around Saint Louis to Whidbey Avenue, and included tree planting efforts.
Overall, the meeting underscored the council's commitment to public safety and community engagement, with plans for continued support and involvement in local environmental initiatives.
