Welcome to the City of Eastborough
Mayor: Thom Rosenberg
Chief of Police: Daniel Bardezbain
The Eastborough Police Department has learned that a group of traveling home repair scam artists may be in the area doing roof repair, home repair and paving scams.
They usually show up uninvited or unrequested. They will almost always tell the victim they have been working in the area and have left-over materials they could use to repair your roof, home or driveway.
No matter what the repair is they offer to do usually takes no more than 1 to 11/2 hours because no preparation work is done for the "repair".
Payment is always requested in cash. If the victim can only pay by check, they ask that it be made out to an individual - not the company they claim to be with.
These con men like to target the elderly and will cruise neighborhoods looking for likely targets. They will not knock on every door in the neighborhood.
All of their vehicles will have out of state tags and if they advertise a company name, it will be in the form of a magnetic sign on the doors.
Anyone who feels they have been contacted by these individuals is asked to call the police immediately.
With the increase in crime in the surrounding Wichita area we will also see some increase here in Eastborough. With all of us working together, we can keep it to a minimum. Support your Police Department by informing the police of any suspicious activities, people or vehicles as quickly as possible so that a possible crime can be stopped before it happens.
Identity theft is the fastest growing crime in the United States. In order to help you protect yourself against this type of crime, the Eastborough Police Department, in conjunction with the Federal Trade Commission, has brochures and booklets available that can help protect against having your identity stolen. The printed materials also provide you with all the information you need as to what to do if you become a victim of identity theft. If you would like to receive this information, come by City Hall between 9:00am to 5:00pm, or contact one of our Police Officers.
