You Can Help Prevent Crimes
In Brea we are fortunate to live in a low crime city, where crime prevention is a key weapon in the police department's arsenal. While crime occurs even in the safest cities, many of those crimes are preventable, and you can help. Read on for easy tips and guidelines.
It's Time to Renew Your Alarm Permit
In an effort to reduce costly false alarms, the Brea City Council established an ordinance requiring business and residental alarm users to obtain an annual alarm permit. July 1 is the deadline for the annual renewal period. It is very important that you keep your permit up-to-date. Likewise, now is a good time to apply a permit if you don't already have one.
Overnight Parking Actively Enforced
The Brea Police Department actively enforces the City's Overnight Parking Ordinance to enhance community safety. The ordinance prohibits on-street parking on public streets for more than 30 minutes between 2:00 a.m. and 6:00 a.m.
Citation Information
The North Justice Center generally mails recipients of traffic citations courtesy notices advising of bail amounts and or traffic school eligibility. Failure to appear and/or pay your fines by the listed court date may result in suspension of your drivers license and a warrant issued for your arrest. Parking citations must be paid or you may request an administrative review within 21 days from the issue date of the citation.

Identity Theft Information
Identity theft involves acquiring key pieces of someone’s identifying information, such as name, address, date of birth, social security number and mother’s maiden name, in order to impersonate them.
Vehicle Storage
All vehicles require a release obtained from the front counter of the Brea Police Department, as well as a fee of $80.00 cash, credit cards, cashiers check or money order payable to the City of Brea. Checks are not accepted. Vehicles are only released to the registered or legal owner(s) of the vehicle, and this person must have a valid driver's license.
City of Brea Truck Routes
The Brea Police Department is asking that truck drivers utilize designated truck routes through the City of Brea when driving through the city. These truck routes are designed to allow large and heavy vehicles to safely manuever through Brea and to limit wear and tear to the city streets due to vehicle weight.
Brea PD Ride-Along Program
The Brea Police Department Ride Along Program allows community members to accompany a patrol officer during a portion of his or her tour of duty. Read on to find out more.
