Q Teams to expand in Queens

The NYC Mayor along with the NYPD Commissioner had a press meet today to announced the expansion of Q-Teams, the NYPD's Quality of Life Division. This operations focus on issues locals are facing from illegal mopeds, towing abandoned and derelict vehicles, cleaning up encampments, addressing outdoor drug use, and responding to noise complaints.

This is the statement, Starting this past April, the NYPD launched Q-Teams in six pilot commands, and to date, these teams have improved non-emergency response times by an average of 47 minutes citywide, while towing 701 vehicles and seizing 318 illegal e-bikes, scooters, and mopeds. Following the success of the pilot program, the NYPD expanded Q-Teams to every precinct in Manhattan on July 14 and throughout the Bronx on July 21 and Brooklyn on July 28. To date, Q-Teams have responded to more than 31,500 911 and 311 calls. The NYPD will continue to expand these efforts to every precinct in Staten Island on August 18 and to all housing commands on August 25. On April 14, the NYPD launched Q-Teams across six pilot commands: the 13th, 40th, 60th, 75th, and 101st precincts, along with Police Service Area 1.

The Mayor want to stop the slogan, "Anything Goes" by making investments that will improve the quality of life and prevent public disorder on city streets.
