Thank you to all the Telecommunication Operators at SWRCC. Between the Thin Blue Line and the Thin Red Line, lies the thinnest Gold Line. This line represents those who are rarely seen but mostly heard. The calm voice in the night that holds it all together - The 911 Operators and Dispatchers.
National Public Safety Telecommunications Week (NPSTW) began in 1981 as an idea to designate a specific week to honor public safety telecommunicators. We wanted to take a moment this week and thank our first - first responders.
THANK YOU! We couldn't do it without you!

Duncanville Police Department Issues Visible Vest with Solicitor Permits

The Duncanville City Council approved changes to Solicitors Ordinance No. 1194R, Chapter 13 on February 2, 2021 at the request of the City’s Police Department. At that council meeting, Police Chief Robert D. Brown, Jr. outlined the department’s goals of improving safety, reducing criminal conduct, preventing unwanted intrusion, and streamlining solicitation permitting and record keeping.

Today, applicants approved for a permit will be issued a brightly colored solicitor’s vest with the permittee’s name, their photo, and a company name visible on the front of the vest

The Solicitors Ordinance limits unwanted intrusion between the hours of 7:00 PM and 9 AM and on designated holidays. When the permits expire, vests will be returned to the Duncanville Police Department.

There are 54 valid permits that were grandfathered prior to the Ordinance change, all of which will have expired no later than August 28, 2021. Those 54 previously permitted solicitors are not required to have such a vest but will be required to have a city issued permit in their possession. After August 28, 2021, no one should be going door to door without the vest and a permit.

Should you be contacted by a solicitor, or door-to-door salesperson not meeting these requirements, or by someone you feel is suspicious in anyway, you are encouraged to immediately call and report these concerns.

Non-emergency Phone # 972-223-6111 ext. 3
If you feel it is an emergency, please do not hesitate to call 9-1-1.
