Safety Resources
​
Metro Public Safety provides private security for the Southmoreland neighborhood, and is funded by neighborhood institutions, businesses, and residents. Metro Public Safety patrol officers are visible throughout the neighborhood during three daily random patrols. Dispatch center can be reached 24/7 at 816-809-9600. After each month MPS submits a report about what they have observed, including abandoned vehicles, homeless encampments, litter and suspicious activity.​​​
