The program allows residents to reach out to CPD and ensure an extra eye is kept on their property while away.

CHARLESTOWN – The Charlestown Police Department would like to remind City of Charlestown residents that if they plan to be away from home for a couple of days, weeks, or months; they can use the Charlestown Police Department’s Vacation House Check program to help keep an extra eye on their property.

The Vacation House Check program simply involves completing a request form, available anytime from the department’s website at www.ctownpd.com/vacationchecks ; and submitting it to arrange for your property to be regularly and individually checked by patrolling Charlestown Police Officers while your away on vacation, a family emergency, or other business.

The form provides information for officers to enable desired notifications in the event a problem is found, security or otherwise, during the routine checks.  Complete information is available at www.ctownpd.com/vacationchecks; as well as, helpful crime prevention tips and information at www.ctownpd.com/prevention.
