The West Carrollton police department has established an area outside the department’s office at the Civic Center, 30
0 E. Central Ave., that’s designated as a safe-exchange zone.
Due to the increasing popularity of online sales on e-commerce sites such as Craigslist and Gov Deals, the department is responding to numerous requests for a designated “safe spot” to exchange goods.
The parking spots, now designated with signs at the northern end of the lot, are located behind the Civic Center in a location that is also monitored by security cameras.
