⚠️ TRAFFIC SAFETY REMINDER ⚠️

Due to the ongoing power outages affecting portions of the city, some traffic signals may be non-functioning.

🚦 If you encounter an intersection where the traffic signal is dark or not working, Ohio law requires drivers to treat the intersection as an ALL-WAY STOP.

✅ Come to a complete stop.
✅ Yield to vehicles that arrived before you.
✅ Proceed only when it is safe to do so.

Please use extra caution, allow yourself additional travel time, and watch for emergency crews working to restore power.

Thank you for your patience and cooperation as crews work to resolve the outage safely.

It is with great sadness that the Ashtabula Police Department shares the passing of two members of our law enforcement family, retired Officer James Henry and retired Officer David Clemens.

Officer Henry dedicated 26 years of service to the citizens of Ashtabula, while Officer Clemens served our community for 31 years. Together, they devoted more than half a century to protecting others, answering calls for help, and serving with honor and commitment.

The impact of their service extends far beyond the years they wore the badge. Their contributions helped shape our department and our community, and their legacy will continue through the officers who follow in their footsteps.

We extend our deepest condolences to their families, friends, and all who had the privilege of serving alongside them. Please keep their loved ones in your thoughts during this difficult time.

Thank you, Officer James Henry and Officer David Clemens, for your years of dedicated service and sacrifice. Your watch has ended, but your legacy will never be forgotten.

🖤💙 End of Watch 🖤💙

Retired Officer James Henry
26 Years of Service

Retired Officer David Clemens

🚴‍♀️⚡ KNOW THE RULES. RIDE RESPONSIBLY. ⚡🚴‍♂️

As bicycle and e-bike use continues to grow throughout our community, the Ashtabula Police Department would like to remind riders of some important safety laws and tips.

Whether you're riding a traditional bicycle or an e-bike, understanding the rules of the road helps keep everyone safe. Riders should obey traffic laws (stop signs, traffic lights, and riding on the right-hand side of the roadway), use proper lighting after dark, and always operate their bicycles in a safe and responsible manner.

Take a moment to review the information below and familiarize yourself with Ohio law and local ordinances regarding bicycles and e-bikes.

Together, we can make our streets safer for motorists, bicyclists, e-bike riders, and pedestrians alike.

As we celebrate the warm weather and summer holidays, the Ashtabula Police Department would like to remind residents that while Ohio law permits certain consumer fireworks, City of Ashtabula ordinance prohibits the discharge of fireworks within city limits except for properly permitted public displays.

We appreciate everyone’s cooperation in helping keep our neighborhoods safe, peaceful, and enjoyable for all. 🇺🇸🎆🚔
