The Civic Club contracts with an organization of off-duty Houston Police Department officers to patrol the neighborhood during certain times of the day and night. The officers serve to provide a deterrent to crime in Afton Oaks, and they also may enforce laws, including traffic laws and municipal code violations. The officers monitor the neighborhood in a car marked "Afton Oaks Patrol", and the Civic Club Board receives a monthly report of actions taken and suspicious activity reported. No patrol or police service can provide absolute protection against crime. The Civic Club recommends that neighbors remain vigilant about being aware of their surroundings and take reasonable security precautions to protect people and property.
To reach law enforcement or patrol personnel, call:
| Emergency |
911 |
| HPD - Non-Emergency |
311 |
| Afton Oaks Patrol |
713 201-3535 |
In an emergency, you should call "911" first, prior to making any attempt to reach the Afton Oaks Patrol.
