For Everett residents planning summer travel, the police department recently posted on Facebook that they may have a solution to a common out-of-town anxiety.
For residents that sign up, police department volunteers will inspect residencies multiple times a week, checking to make sure all entrances are secure.
According to the department website, apartments, for-sale homes, commercial properties and bank-owned or vacant homes are not eligible for the program.
The department says that residents should be gone for at least three days in order to enroll.
Interested residents of Everett can sign up by putting their information into a signup form on the department’s website.
