Project Safe Lock will allow quick access to a residence when time is of the essence, such as a medical emergency where the doors are locked and the patient is unable to get to the door, or during winter months when pipes sometimes burst and the homeowner is out of town. It is a voluntary program and certain restrictions as to who can obtain a lock box under this program may apply. Police are planning on issuing the lock boxes on a case-by-case basis, measuring factors such as living arrangements, age, physical conditions and medical status.
Those interested in the program will be able to apply via an application form on the Brick Police website, or by responding to the Community Policing Office at the Brick Township Police Department during regular business hours.
