A woman recently e-mailed to thank Sector 312 officers who patrol the community around Bassett and Westover Hills Boulevard. "I just wanted to say thanks for being present in my neighborhood. I notice units sitting in the lot in the evenings occasionally and it really makes me feel 100 percent safer to take a trip to my car," she wrote. "I've also encountered police officers patrolling the grounds and really, just knowing a good guy is nearby means more than you all probably hear. So thanks for just being there."
