Dear Citrus Heights Residents,

I want you to know that your City Councilmembers, officials, and staff are in constant contact with our local police department and regional officials. The City of Citrus Heights remains safe and our solid roots as a community once again prove that we can weather storms together.

City leaders all remain committed to our promise of serving the Citrus Heights community with professionalism and respect, while honoring and preserving the community’s rights to free speech. One of our top priorities as a City, from the very beginning of our incorporation, has been effectively serving public safety needs – this is unchanged.

Last night’s Citrus Heights police reports show criminal activity unrelated to protests, and I am proud of our Police Department’s continuous demonstration of responsive, thoughtful crime prevention and public safety.

I am also proud of our Citrus Heights community that continues to show compassion and respect in the midst of current events. Know that as City officials and staff stay committed to your public safety, we will continue to be a part of regional and state-wide conversations to advocate for the priorities of our community. Our team will continue to keep the community updated on important information.

Please stay safe and steadfast in the compassion I’ve seen demonstrated in our community in so many ways over these past few months.

Sincerely,

 

Chris Boyd
City Manager
