🚨 Community Safety Alert – Oakdale Police Department 🚨

The Oakdale Police Department is reminding all Oakdale residents to take extra precautions in securing their property.

Over the past several days, our region has experienced numerous incidents involving vehicles being entered and, in some cases, stolen. At this time, it is believed these incidents may be connected and potentially organized in nature.

Criminals tend to look for situations where access is quick and effortless. Please do your part to protect your property:

-Lock all residence doors and windows
-Secure garage doors at all times
- Remove valuables from vehicles
-Lock vehicle doors, even when parked in your driveway
-Residents should also be aware that some offenders may utilize inexpensive but sophisticated technology - such as radio frequency signal jammers to disrupt Wi-Fi networks and disable security cameras, including doorbell cameras

If you observe any suspicious activity, suspicious vehicles, or individuals prowling in your neighborhood, do not hesitate to call 911. Even what may seem like a minor detail could assist officers and lead to an arrest.

Stay alert.
Stay secure.
Thank you for helping keep Oakdale safe.

Oakdale Borough is proud to support this wonderful initiative been the Oakdale Hose Company and NorthWest EMS. To have this type of coverage for a municipality our size is unheard of. We thank not only NorthWest EMS but especially the leadership of the Oakdale Hose Company for all their hard work in bringing this to fruition.

Due to the extreme low temperatures that will continue through next week, the risk of freezing pipes in your home is much higher.

Please take a moment to identify where your water lines are running in your home, where your main shut off is (by the water meter) as well as any spots where water lines may be in direct contact with exterior walls.

You may consider adding space heaters to areas that are enclosed and may not receive heat from your furnace. This is common in Ryan split level homes, where the meter is under the stairs. Please see the attached photo for portable heater safety.

You may also consider keeping a faucet at a fast drip overnight to help prevent freezing.

Please note that the Borough cannot directly help with frozen lines inside your home, except for your water meter. If you experience a no water condition, you may call the office. Our Public Works may be able to offer some advice on techniques to help thaw your pipes.

The Oakdale Borough Mayor, Council, Police, Fire and Public Works have been planning together to keep the town safe during the upcoming winter storm. While there is still a degree of uncertainty on how much snow will drop, we are planning for the worst.

Public Works will be working around the clock to keep the roads clear for emergency vehicles. Due to the salt shortage affecting all municipalities, salt will be rationed to keep hills and main roads open. Roads may be slippery even after being plowed.

We need your help to keep the roads open.

Please do not drive unless it is absolutely necessary. Stay off the roads.

Please do not park on the roads. The Borough Parking Ordinances will be strictly enforced. Beginning at 12PM on Saturday, if a vehicle is parked ANYWHERE there is no parking permitted that vehicle will be cited and ticketed.

If you are parking legally on a street, please pull off the road as far as possible to allow room for the plow truck to move the snow out of the travel lane.

Please do not shovel your snow into the roadway.

If you have a fire hydrant on your property, please clear a three foot space around it.

If you have an emergency, please do not hesitate to dial 911. Our Police and Fire Department will be staffed to ensure a prompt response.

If there is a power outage and you use a generator, be sure that are outside and placed away from your home.

Lastly, we strongly recommend gathering any supples needed today or tomorrow, prior to start of the event.

Breaking News from the Oakdale Hose Company, starting at 3PM today!!!

Dear Oakdale Residents,

With the winter season upon us, Oakdale Borough is asking for your cooperation to ensure safe and efficient snow removal throughout our community.

In areas without restricted street parking, we kindly request that residents with available driveway space make full use of it during snow events. This helps keep roadways clear and allows plow trucks to operate safely and effectively. On narrower streets, please be mindful to leave adequate room near turns and curves so that plows and emergency vehicles can navigate without obstruction.

For public safety and liability reasons, all no-parking ordinances will be strictly enforced during any snow event that requires street plowing. Any vehicles left on the street during active plowing will be subject to ticketing.

A good rule of thumb is if weather forecasts call for snow, assume there will be snow removal.

We appreciate your attention to this matter and your continued cooperation in keeping Oakdale safe during the winter months.

Sincerely,

Oakdale Borough
