The United States Park Police will conduct “courtesy checks” upon request for Presidio residents and employers who plan to be away for an extended period.

Courtesy checks provide an extra patrol to a Presidio home/workplace and are an extension of normal patrol duties. As time permits during a shift, a patrol officer(s) will visit your home/workplace to make a physical inspection of the building exterior and grounds. If there is a problem or the officer has a question regarding security, then the officer will contact you.

The courtesy check program is available for Presidio residents and tenants who will be away from their home or workplace for three days or more days. You must register for the program by completing a form AT THE U.S. PARK POLICE HEADQUARTERS, located at 1217 Ralston Avenue in the Fort Scott area of the park.
