The Santa Barbara Police Department invites you to have Coffee with a Cop.

Please join us for the next in a continuing series of informal community meetings that take place at different coffee shop venues throughout the city. There are no agendas or guest speakers, just an opportunity to sit and talk to a Santa Barbara police officer about anything that may concern you.

Our last event on Coast Village Road brought residents, community leaders and representatives from the Police Department together to discuss quality of life issues and to exchange ideas.

This time we’ll be downtown, from 9 to 11 a.m. Tuesday, Sept. 23 at Santa Barbara Roasting Co., 321 Motor Way.

Please contact the Beat Coordinator Unit with any questions at 805.897.2407.
