On Thursday evening, members of the Jewish Community Council of Marine Park and some of the Rabbonim in Marine Park met with officials from the NYPD, including the Commanding Officer of the 63rd Precinct, Deputy Inspector Frank Cangiarella and the Executive Officer of the precinct.

In what proved to be an extremely informative meeting, many ideas and and suggestions were exchanged with the goal of protecting the quality of life in Marine Park and its surroundings. Among the concepts that were discussed was that of a Civilian patrol. Deputy Inspector Cangiarella was very receptive of the idea and encouraged the JCC to gauge the interest of the community regarding it. The Deputy Inspector also discussed the upcoming Yomim Tovim, and pledged that he will have Police Officers stopping by every Shul to make sure that all is well.

The Jewish Community Council of Marine Park thanks the NYPD and the 63rd Precinct for being so receptive to the needs of our community. The JCCMP also wishes to thank Rafael Treitel who is the clergy liaison to the 63rd Precinct and who has bee of invaluable assistance to the community on all Police matters.
