The Heights Constable program
The Heights Constable program is a supplemental police force of currently four deputies hired to patrol the greater Heights area, including your neighborhood. The Houston Heights Association welcomes new subscribers to the program. All residents and business owners are strongly encouraged to participate, as the program, which benefits the entire neighborhood, is funded solely by paid subscriptions.
Under this program, each of the four deputies works 40 hours a week on staggered shifts, patrolling in marked cars for high visibility to help deter crime.
The Heights Constable program:
• Answer alarms calls
• Respond to HPD dispatch
• Perform vacation watches
• Complete free home security inspections for subscribers
• Write tickets & make arrests
Why Pay to Subscribe?
Paid subscribers also have a direct phone contact with the Precinct 1 dispatcher for a quicker response time to any calls or reports of suspicious activity, either by the deputy on patrol or a nearby deputy. Paid subscription even comes with vacation watch services, special watches for unusual circumstances, and free home security inspections.
The Constable Patrol program raises the level of security in our neighborhood and is only possible through paid subscriptions.
