Safety Committee of Arden, Delaware
Broadly speaking, the committee handles safety issues. It replaces and installs stop signs, no parking signs, etc., throughout the town. It oversees the Town Watch for Arden and acts as liason with the New Castle County Police, but it does NOT handle complaints or emergencies: those should be referred to the police. The Safety Committee works with County and State police forces, but only in an advisory capacity.
Emergencies
- For emergencies, call 911 right away. Arden does not have its own a law enforcement officers, but relies on the County.
- For non-emergencies, call New Castle County Police at 573-2800. Again, Arden does not have its own police force.
