All officials elected to represent the Lyell area have beeen invited, as well as RPD. 

Silvano Orsi (Founder, Little Italy Neighborhood): "We're very proud and honored to partner with the NYS Troopers to bring useful information to the troubled Lyell area and Greater Rochester community on Neighborhood Crime Prevention, particularly in view of the recent uptick in violence and the tragic homicide at Burger King on Lyell Avenue. Our intention is to help reduce crime, facilitate revitalization of the Lyell area, and help strengthen the relationship between law enforcement and the local community."
