Y’all laughed about our safe driving warning during rain…it took a little while to get here, but we got a bit of rain this morning and there have already been several accidents on 59 and 90! Slow down out there, folks!

Sugar Land Police Department recently hosted the FBI-LEEDA Media and Public Relations course, which attracted attendees from all across the country.
Being a TCOLE service provider means Sugar Land PD can host courses for our officers as well as other agencies, which reduces training costs and makes our department a gateway for Texas Law Enforcement career advancements.

Congratulations to Sugar Land’s own: Renie Deanda, Jennifer Williams, and Officer Stockholm for completing this training, along with all the other graduates! Special appreciation to Captain Suter for coordinating with FBI-LEEDA and making this course possible, and to lead instructor Paul Chambers for sharing his knowledge and experience!

We’re heading into the halfway stretch of hurricane season, and we have a new guest coming to town. 🌧️

Tropical Depression 5 has officially been upgraded to Tropical Storm Edouard. The storm has maximum sustained winds of 40 mph, with heavy rainfall and the potential for flash flooding being the primary concerns throughout the day.

While current forecasts indicate Edouard will only have minimal impacts for Sugar Land, conditions can change, so it’s a good time to stay weather aware and prepared.

A few reminders:
-Never drive through flooded roadways. Turn around, don’t drown.
-Charge phones and other essential devices in case of power outages, and have flashlights and extra batteries ready.
-Secure or bring in loose outdoor items that could be moved by wind or heavy rain.
-Clear leaves and debris from storm drains around your property to help keep water flowing.
-Stay up to date with the latest forecast and weather information from the National Weather Service Houston/Galveston office and local officials.

Hopefully, our guest keeps moving along, but it's a good time to keep an eye on the forecast and stay weather aware.

Rain is coming...
-Don't speed.
-Don't drive through standing water.
-Do drive safe, and leave some extra room between you and the other vehicles around you.
*Oh, and no need for driving with hazard lights on...we all know it's raining, no need to be fancy. But we do like the individual blinky lights...keep using the turn signals!

Sugar Land Police regularly receive complaints about parking violations, especially around schools and within neighborhoods! Where and how you park affects visibility, traffic flow, pedestrian safety, and emergency vehicle access.

Blocking intersections interrupts traffic flow and delays emergency vehicles!

Blocking sidewalks makes it unsafe for children and adults to walk through the neighborhood!

Blocking someone else's driveway is not only inconsiderate, it's illegal too!

Texas law prohibits parking:

• On a sidewalk, in an intersection, or on a crosswalk
• In front of a public or private driveway
• Within 15 feet of a fire hydrant
• Within 20 feet of a crosswalk at an intersection
• Within 30 feet of a stop sign, yield sign, flashing signal, or traffic-control signal
• Anywhere official signs prohibit stopping, standing, or parking

Just taking a few extra moments to check where you park can help keep our streets safe and accessible for neighbors, pedestrians, and first responders.

It's Feel Good Friday!!!

This week, while Sugar Land Officers Ramirez and Hersey were responding to a call for service, they got an unexpected visit from a four legged friend. Gunner, a blind Boston Terrier, had escaped from his yard and wandered a few blocks away! Thankfully, Officers were able to keep Gunner safe while they got in contact with his owners and return him home safely. Everyone loves a happy ending! Let's hope Gunner got a pup cup for his troubles!
