Saturday, I did call the police, once before dark, and again just past 11. The later call, I was queued to talk to someone for 30 minutes (! non-emergency number), and while I waited, I typed the beginning of an email to the county executive, and finished it after I talked to the dispatcher.

I then walked up the street and let the neighbors know I'd called the police. They were not happy about that.

Probably less happy today. I had three phone calls yesterday from the police sargeant who handles public nuisances, an email from someone else in authority before that, and today, a call from an officer who talked to someone at the property today; this officer says he's going back, too, to talk to them again later today or tomorrow.

The power of email!
