Safety and Security
In general, residents report being well served by the Toronto Police Service.
Still, the PRA has found that it pays to put some effort into building relationships and keeping the lines of communication open with the police.
Community Police Liaison Committees
The PRA is actively involved in the Community Police Liaison Committee (CPLC) for 14 and 11 Divisions. These divisions work closely together to serve Parkdale and its surrounding neighbourhoods. The CPLC meetings provide a monthly forum for community representatives to meet with command and front-line officers to discuss issues, policing operations, strategies and results. Meetings are open to the public and are listed in the Upcoming Events section on the home page of this website. Meeting locations are generally at the local division station but sometimes are held within the community. Contact the PRA or the Toronto Police Service to get involved.
Toronto Police Service – 14 Division
14 Division is the primary division serving Parkdale. 14 Division serves all of Parkdale from Queen Street West south to the Lake and east to Dufferin Street.
14 Division operates a mailing list for current happenings, warnings, and crime prevention bulletins for those living in the 14 Division area. Sign up to receive these mailings.
If you sign up for the 14 Division mailing list, you will also receive the monthly 14 Division Community Bulletin. For other 14 Division news check their website.
Toronto Police Service – 11 Division
11 Division serves the north side of Queen Street West in Parkdale and areas north and west of the Queen & Dufferin intersection including Roncesvalles.
11 Division operates a TIPS mailing list for current happenings, warnings, and crime prevention bulletins for those living in the 11 Division area. Sign up to receive these mailings.
The 11 Division bulletin can be viewed monthly on their website. Look for the Community Bulletin link on the right hand side.
TPS Links
You may also sign up for the more advanced TPSlinks. This system allows you to choose the types of messages (neighbourhood crime alerts, emergency incidents, road closures, and more) and the delivery method (email, voice, and text messaging).
