Internet Exchange Zone

Have you ever made an online purchase but were fearful of meeting a person face to face that you’d only met online? An Internet Exchange Zone was established March 3, 2020 in two parking spaces in front of the North Syracuse Police Department at 608 South Bay Road, N. Syracuse to help promote safety.

The Internet Exchange Zone provides an emergency telephone for folks to call if needed. The area is under 24-hour surveillance by video camera which is constantly recorded. All are welcome to safely buy and/or sell your items using the NSPD Internet Purchase Exchange Zone.

Vacation/ House Check Program

The North Syracuse Police Department's House Watch Program is designated for residents who will NOT have anyone (such as pet sitters, someone watering plants/checking the residence, etc.) at their home while they are away for an extended period of time.

If you have someone watching your house, have them contact the Police Department in the event it looks like something is "out of place" or "disturbed."

These checks are random outdoor visual checks of your property and home. If an incident does occur at your residence while you are away, the information provided below will assist police personnel in contacting a responsible party and complete an investigation. Once your request is submitted, a return email will be sent to you confirming receipt and ensuring your residence will be added to our property checklist. You can call our headquarters at 315-458-5670 or use the NSPD mobile phone app to submit your request. Enjoy your vacation!

Senior Registration

Through the NSPD Phone App Village residents who are seniors may input their information which will be kept and used in the event they become lost, missing, have wandered off or may have a medical condition and are unable to relay that information to first responders. All information is kept confidential and secured at our Headquarters. Download the NSPD mobile phone app to register.
