Neighborhood Net
In today's world, footage is a crime solving tool, sometimes becoming the missing piece of a complex puzzle. The Neighborhood Net Community Camera Program is a voluntary sign-up system to better assist Fairway Police Officers in the investigation of crimes. Private citizens can submit their contact information and details of security cameras to formulate a confidential map of our city, only accessible by the Fairway Police Department.
Any security cameras or doorbell video systems that record public areas of the city, such as streets, sidewalks, etc., can be signed up for the program. This program does NOT give Fairway Police Officers access to your security systems but provides address and contact information for quick contact and evidence collection.
Registration is voluntary, and participants can withdrawal their participation at any time. Register
Non-emergency reports are to be submitted via the form (link below). The information will be sent to the Fairway Police Department. When an Officer is available you will be to contact via phone or e-mail. Please use this form so we can keep Officers available to respond to emergencies. Submitting this form alone is not a police report. To officially have a police report filed, you must be contacted by a Fairway Police Officer.

Notify JOCO
Those who live or work in Johnson County can now sign up to receive important information about locations they care about through Notify JoCo, a free public notification system which will communicate emergency information through phone, text and email messages to members of the community.
Using contact information provided by users, Notify JoCo allows local governments and utilities to notify the public about issues affecting locations they identify.

To use the system residents should go to www.NotifyJoCo.org to register their personal contact preferences. They will be asked to provide their contact information. Users can then identify multiple locations they care about and choose which messages they would like to receive. Residents who do not have internet access may call (913)826-5555 to register their information. All information provided will be kept confidential and only used to contact citizens about emergencies and topics in which they have expressed interest.
When there is an event requiring a message to be sent, authorized county and city officials will identify the affected areas and send out the message through Notify JoCo via phone, e-mail, or text message. The system has the ability to send out a minimum of 100,000 notifications per hour, allowing Notify JoCo to reach citizens immediately in emergency situations.
