Ag Fair
We are busy firming up plans for Truro AG Fair and Truro Treasures. Remember, Truro Center Road will be open to limited traffic for the AG Fair, which is Sunday September 4 from 9 – 5. South Pamet Road will be closed from Truro Center Road to the off-ramps. There will be limited parking – we are asking folks to please car pool!
Truro Treasures
The police and fire departments are having an open house during Truro Treasures weekend. We will feature a US Coast Guard helicopter, a K-9 demonstration, BBQ and tours. Please stop by on that Saturday, Sept 17th from 11AM until 2PM. Remember traffic for both events will be very heavy!
Hurricane Irene
Well, Hurricane Irene came and went; and I am glad we were spared flooding and significant damage. Truro officials from all department were ready for the storm, and we thank them for their diligence and assistance. A special "Thank You" to our CERT Team for contacting all of the motel and cottage managers about the storm. Truro really has people willing to help in all capacities!
The Public Safety Facility received significant damage to our electrical systems. We are told that the building received several spikes, meaning we likely got upwards of 300-400 volts through our building. We are working to get the damage assessed and equipment replaced through our insurance carrier.
Other Items of Importance
Shore Road, between Stott’s Crossing and the Provincetown Town Line, will be open to local traffic and closed to through traffic during daylight hours. This is due to Provincetown Water Department's construction. This will start right after Labor Day Weekend.
The first quarterly report will be published shortly on the Truro Police Department website, along with our after-action report on Hurricane Irene.
On a final note, in our effort to increase transparency, we are inviting folks to come and ride along with a police officer. If you're interested, please stop by or give us a call at 508-487-8730. Also, please check our website, which is update daily. www.truropolice.org
