The East Atlanta Security Patrol (“EASP”) is an effort to enhance safety in East Atlanta. Specifically, off-duty Zone Six Police Officers are employed to perform additional patrols within Beat 612, which is the police designation for the East Atlanta community, beyond those presently being performed by the police. The amount of time that the officers shall patrol will be determined by the level of
support from the community in terms of membership. Since more members mean more patrol hours, we encourage you to share this information with your neighbors and East Atlanta business owners.
