Crescenta Valley Sheriff’s Station Makes Operational Adjustments to Combat Novel Coronavirus

Many Los Angeles County government offices have temporarily closed as part of a proactive approach to slow the spread of the novel coronavirus. However, Crescenta Valley Sheriff’s Station is open and operational. Thankfully, the staffing levels have not been affected. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Dept. will continue to monitor the health and well being of  staff in order to provide uninterrupted service to the community.

While the CVSS response to emergency and non-emergency calls for service has not changed, they are making certain operational adjustments to those who visit the front lobby. The community is encouraged to limit the use of the station lobby. This is in order to promote the health of the station staff and the community. Exceptions to this request include:

*When law enforcement presence is needed to protect life, safety, or property.
*Individuals who are required to check in with law enforcement
*Mandated visits for the payment of fees or collection of property
*Required visits in order to release a vehicle from impound or storage
*Court ordered child custody exchanges
For non-emergent services, the public is  encouraged to call the station ahead of time at (818) 248-3464 or use the services on LASD.org . Certain police reports can be made online at http://shq.lasdnews.net/shq/SORTS/sorts_intro.aspx This system allows a specific type of crime or incident report to be filed through this website. Once a report is reviewed and accepted, filers will receive a free copy of the approved report emailed for their records.

Incidents that can be filed include:

• Lost or stolen cellphones valued $950 or less
• Lost or stolen property valued $950 or less
• Vandalism, excluding graffiti, where damage is valued under $400
• Theft from an unlocked vehicle valued $950 or less
• Theft from an open or unsecured area valued $950 or less
• Supplemental Loss Form (Must already have a LASD report number)

Those who request  police services while experiencing any flu-like symptoms, fever, and/or coughing, notify the phone operator so deputies can take necessary precautions prior to contacting those affected.

Crescenta Valley Station apologizes for any inconvenience this may cause. However, we are committed to serving our communities and being part of the solution in limiting the spread of COVID-19.
