More than 300 illegal ATVs and dirt bikes have been seized since I took office. Today, I joined Chief Perez to highlight the work of the Providence Police Department’s Neighborhood Response Team and the progress we’re making to address illegal ATV activity, reckless driving, pop-up parties and quality-of-life concerns across our city. We’re also working with our Parks Department to help protect Roger Williams Park from late-night takeovers and illegal activity, while keeping it safe and welcoming for families, neighbors and visitors. I’ll continue listening to residents and working with our public safety partners to make sure every neighborhood in Providence feels safe. – at Providence, RI
