Quick Contacts

We hope this will be a convenient source of contact information for utilities, emergency repairs, and selected city, state, and federal agencies and officials. Please let us know of other appropriate information and updates.

The New Orleans Police Department has a new web site. From it you can make online incident reports (reports of crimes that are that are less serious in nature and with no known suspects; for anything that requires an immediate police response, dial 911 ), report a problem directly to your local police district, review crime maps, pay parking tickets online, pay traffic tickets online, find brake tag stations, and more. It even offers an online tutorial on fire and burglar alarm systems. Check it out at http://www.nopd.org/.

Sam Palumbo

896-5855

As Quality of Life Officer for the 2nd Police District, Officer Palumbo serves as liaison between the public and city services. He has asked Fontainebleau residents to feel free to contact him about any city problem, including sanitation, potholes, sewer and water, or police protection, and he will make sure your concern is routed to the proper office.

Officer Palumbo also encourages Fontainebleau residents to call the police non-emergency number (821-2222) to report not only obvious criminal intent but any suspicious activity. As examples, he mentioned persons unknown to you walking repeatedly back and forth down your block or non-neighborhood persons walking down the street carrying tools. Often, such people are "casing the neighborhood" to plan a robbery, or have stolen tools from a shed. The police will immediately send a car to check out the suspicious activity. Even if no criminal activity has yet occurred, Officer Palumbo said that seeing a police car will spread the word that Fontainebleau is a neighborhood where neighbors are alert to what's going on around them and will call the police if they have any suspicions.
