House watch

The House Watch Program is a service provided to Edwardsville residents which is intended to enhance the security of their homes while they are on vacation or otherwise away from their residence for a lengthy period(s).  It is designed to provide useful information to the district officer on such residences in his/her patrol district.  When carried out properly, it can also serve as a valuable crime prevention tool.

Generally, the house watch will not exceed sixty (60) days in duration. 

A resident may call on the last day of the house watch period to have it extended in

the event of an emergency.  The Edwardsville Police Department also request that if

you return earlier than planned please contact us so that we may remove your request from the house watch rotation.

To complete a house watch request please make contact with the Edwardsville Police
Department at 650 S. 4th Street, Edwardsville, KS or call (913) 441-6983 and complete the information on a house watch card.  A copy of the card can be veiwed at the link below to ensure you have the required information to complete the request.   

This program continues to allow the Edwardsville Police Department the opportunity

to assist the citizens in keeping Edwardsville a safe place to live.  If you have any
